All the fitting that is going to be done has been done. So now it’s time to cut. As you can see, my helper arrived right on schedule. Unfortunately, he decided the best way to “help” would be to race around on top of the fabric. This resulted in the helper being shut in the bedroom for a while.
Shirt pieces were cut. And cut again. And again. It’s at this point that I think to myself, “If I was only making one of these shirts, I would be done by now.” I’m sure that will not be the last time I have that thought.

Important note from the future: For those of us making the tiny ruffle variation of the Laurel, I think the organza is overkill for the stay stitching. There’s going to be a ruffle and bias tape there, no need to add the organza too. Skip this step if you haven’t already done it. Just do the stay stitching. I’m guessing that’s all you need.
