I using the piece I'd pinned on earlier as a pattern, I cut out another collar piece so I had two -- one for the inside and one for the outside. I also cut out some stiff interfacing to sandwich in between do the collar (hopefully) won't collapse.

The interfacing is basted to the collar, and the collar is machine sewn to the neckline. |
Next, putting the right side of the two collar pieces together, I basted around the outer edges.
Then I trimmed off the excess interfacing.
Then I turned the collar right side out, and prick-stitched the outer edge.
I still have to sew down the inside, but it's getting there.
You have the patience of a saint! What a beautiful garment!!!
