I love to see the beautiful things you make. This placket is no exception -- beautiful. I have a question, tho, probably because I'm just being dense :>) When you show the little placket (strip) before you sew it on the sleeve, it's suppose to be cut at 1/2? But then you fold in 1/4" on one side and it looks (at least in the picture) that there is about 1/2" left unfolded? I guess I'm not understanding the dimensions here, please forgive me.
