Button placket

In order to make it really easy for the nursing staff to dress Mum without causing her pain, I wanted to add buttons to the kwiksew tank top to increase the opening size.
This is the site I used to create the button placket - it works http://sewing.craftgossip.com/tutorial-mans-shirt-with-mandarin-collar-and-button-placket/2009/04/17/ once on the site click on the tutorial link and you get to a google docs slide show.

100% cotton knit, size XS, Kwiksew2867
