Currently using the WDF Vincent “Cutter’s Guide” from the early 1900s to draft a shirt pattern. Did I know what the “button stand” was before today? No. Did a couple British sewers/sewists explain it’s just the button placket? Yes. And now, here you are, showing me exactly how to fold AND sew it, just like magic, unlike the lot of them! Thank you so much for your help, from a costuming fellow! (Perhaps next I will try my hand at those mystical flat-front/fronted/dress shirts…)

Thank you for sharing your story with us. Glad we could be a small part of it!
This is always my go to way to do a front button placket on casual shirts ~ so tidy, and super easy. Thanks for sharing your method.
