Hi Mango66, Thanks so much for your kind words. As you see, if you just take your time and enjoy the process, it's not as scary as you may have thought! Pam

Hello Pam, Thank you for this wonderful course. I enjoy your Zen attitude towards the whole project -- if I had had you as my sewing teacher years ago, my life might have taken a different turn! I am looking forward to my first pristine white classic tailored shirt -- then many more variations after that.

Hi cadcher552985, The pattern I used in the class was a KwikSew #3555, but you can use any other pattern with classic shirt details. You will still be able to follow along with the class if this particular pattern is not available to you. Remember, Craftsy will give you a discount on patterns sold for this class once you've signed up. I look forward to ''seeing'' you here!, Thanks, Pam

Very nice job-I am going to check it out for sure! I just do not know why plackets can be such a pain! Thank you for the help.

Hello! As a matter of fact, it's not difficult at all :-)) Please check out the Tower Placket tutorial I have done for all of you on my Blog: http://www.pamelasclosetinc.blogspot.com or on YouTube. Also, you can download a pattern (all of you who are taking the class), for the Tower Placket and template from the Course Materials. It's been added there for you! Enjoy, and post a picture of your new shirts with the Tower Placket!! Thanks, Pam
