Further adjustments

So once I had sorted my silly little CF mistake, I moved onto the badly lying collar, which for some reason just wouldn't fall right:

While I had taken the basic concept from one of my commercial patterns, I drew up this collar from Hilary Campbell's Designing Patterns – a fresh approach to pattern cutting, so I went back to my commerical patterns to work out the difference. I made a mock up of Butterick 8501 and it lay perfectly:

So I redrew my patterns and recut my front panels and fingers crossed it should work out better! I'm also gonna put some stay-flex in the collar and overlap...see if that helps!
