Apple

Not the one you eat, but the shirt. The pattern is quite famous, for a reason..... it is  briljant!

 The color in the first picture is way off, the second one is more accurate.
The pattern has a one-piece collar, I did a 2-piece following these instructions. I am not sure if it is better, I will try the original 1-piece collar next time to compare.

I am particularly proud of the bias strip on the seam allowance, I managed to sew it in real neat, inspired by this blog post.
I really like the buttons, the pick up both the turquoise and the grey, unfortunately I broke one by trying to sew them on by machine. I guess you should tell the machine how wide the buttons are before you start sewing. I also was a victim of the sewing machine conspiracy: while sewing the second leg of the very last buttonhole, I ran out of bobbin thread. This always happens, in every project. You are as good as done, but the bobbin is done 2 inches earlier. Grrrr.....
