Alva Collar

I whipped up this collar on Saturday in under an hour. And frankly, most of that time was spent looking for a matching button. It’s my second make from Named Clothing, the Alva Collar.

I copped the idea to make it reversible from jolies bobines, and I made it out of some scraps I had hanging around- some black kona cotton and a piece of red cotton 30s reproduction fabric that I’m pretty sure I’ve had since high school.

My only complaint about it is that I don’t know how to keep it from sliding around on my neck and getting crooked or showing my shirt collar in the front.
