Pattern alterations or any design changes you made or would recommend

The pattern has you sewing on bias binding in the "cheater" method - not sewing one side and then folding over, but sewing the binding closed over the raw edges all in one step. Top-stitching the button plackets is supposedly optional, but it seems necessary to me to keep them in place.

Seems to be A Lot of hem allowance.

Would you sew this pattern again?

Yes

Would you recommend this pattern to others?

Yes
