Hello fellow designers! The pattern modifications that I discussed last week for my new blouse are finished and I've begun to construct the shirt. The fabric is fun and whimsical, so I decided to enhance this aesthetic by adding some beading along the edges of the collar and the cuffs. What do you think? 
Additionally, I finished the peaked plackets on the sleeve openings. 
I also added the pleat I mentioned at center back, just below the yoke, and tested the whole piece on the form to evaluate the length. I'm liking the slightly exaggerated length, which feels modern; but it will be easy to shorten later if I decide it is too long. Today, I'm excited to attach the front to the back and add the sleeves to body, which will give me a good idea of how the design works as a whole. I hope to post this progress tomorrow, so please check back in!
