Done

I love this but let me tell you, it was tough to figure out the pattern etc.  I screwed up everything at least once. For example:
1. I had to resew at least 6 faux flat fell seams.
2. I took the waistband off 3x
3. I just put the buttonholes on the wrong side of the shirt.

But, it came out great. And I love it. I will definitely make more from the books and they will come out better. At least as far as I know. I don't think anybody will notice the mistakes.
