Butterick Pattern B6852 - Shirts for her (me)
https://simplicity.com/butterick/b6852
I had this pattern and figured I would make it. In Palmer/Plesche manner, you get TONS of instructions and fitting information. I don't do tissue fitting but it can come in very handy for someone who's never fitted a pattern before (tons of guidance and videos out there as well)
I had some really lovely lawn fabric from fabricmart fabrics (dead stock Kauffman) so I was totally ready to rock.
The pattern for me had almost too much guidance...lol (I never actually follow instructions fully) It has bust darts, plus shaping fish eye darts front and back. It has a 2 piece sleeve which I always like. It teaches one to burrito the yoke if you've never done it before.
For shirts (even my own) I flat fell, its just lovely and comfortable to me. for buttons I used vintage mother of pearl (I know but I have lots of these things)
