I finished up the shirt today! There were a few issues along the way but the end result was worth it.
A close up of the Zen double collars. Each has one side of the print and the other of the faux linen. I went simple with the buttons, which I was fortunate enough to find in a perfect match.
Sleeve are faced with more of the cotton accent fabric.
This version is the third one from this pattern. None of them use the original collar, for some reason. I think I'm going to give this pattern a rest for now, although a sleeveless version might happen this summer.

Lovely shirt. An opera singer several years back referred to this color as Puerto Rican Pink (she was) as it was her most favorite color. Nice work on the collars.
Love the new picture at the top of the blog.
