Very nice. The new lighting setup/backdrop sets everything off. It rather brings it more alive when you see shirts in various cloths other than just plain colours or unbleached cotton.

J, your shirts look comfortable and you should get lots of wear out of them.  Now that you have a successful pattern you can vary it and make multiples.

Thanks for the compliment.  One thing bothers me - I wonder if the folds in the right chest (which are consistent across several different fabrics) are due to an overcorrection for scoliosis?  We developed that correction before dropping the right shoulder, and I wonder if there is a little too much slant in the side seams?

Should be easy to check - I can cut the next short-sleeve shirt with some inlay at the sides and play around with the slant...

As your bone is more in front on the right side  you need more length here in bodice and maybe sleeve. Less slant is to achieve

I'm sorry, I don't understand - do you mean less slant is needed, or more?

less, you not more length over the bone.
