due to factors such as “time pressure” and “tulle is of the devil” my expectations for this shirt are not high. but i spent a lot of time imagining these button bands and they turned out pretty nice

progress on this includes:
attached the back and the yoke; did the yoke with wonky little panels for reinforcement(?), as it’s not double-layered, and for a fun symmetrical piecing moment
attached fronts to back at shoulders (not pictured)
constructed a collar and collar stand and arranged Leafs upon it
started hand stitching down leafs. it would be more elegant to do this before assembling the collar, but i can’t visualize how both the seam allowances and the crease in the collar work + the tulle is itchy if misplaced
have yet to do sleeves, side seams, finishing hand stitching on collar, attaching collar, sleeve plackets (on tulle??), cuffs, Buttonholes (evil to me)

Shirt’s done except for finishing the collar handstitching & touching up some of the buttonholes (used a friend’s fancy machine with varying success). Lots of things wrong with it that are hard to see from more than three feet away
No pictures of it on me because I have yet to obtain a suitable layering piece which is a really funny problem to have!
Going to work under this sky is so bizarre im like pretty sure civilization as we know it will crumble before any researchers get their hands on the midden samples im inventorying
