Notes	My husband has always had a pink and white gingham shirt in his wardrobe. He purchased this fabric himself and bought enough to make a shirt for Lidia too! Cotton pink and white woven gingham. Plastic faux tortoiseshell buttons. Back yoke cut on bias. Added a shirt loop. Shortened sleeves by 2 cm Accidentally sewed the buttonholes on the lady side as I was tandem sewing Lidia's blouse at the same time He is not bothered, so that is good.

It has notches to fold on. I think you fold a narrow seam allowance and then the self facing. I fold to the outside for a feature when I am using a fabric without a discernible right/wrong side
