Now that the corset top is done, I've resumed working on the flannel shirt, as I'm probably going to need it quite soon, weatherwise.

Yesterday evening I had planned to flat fell the sleeve seams, instead I've finished hemstitching the collar to the wrong side, and attached the back to the yoke.

Today I want to do the side seams by machine, as that's the last machine seam, and everything else will be done by hand.

The pattern is https://sewing-patterns.trueelena.org/historical_menswear/shirts/1880s_shirt/index.html , with a flat front instead of the pleats.
