You will need a little interfacing to help the collar maintain its shape. There are iron on interfacing. (Meaning when you apply heat it will fuse to the fabric.) There are interfacings that are not iron on. You can pick up either at your local fabric store. Find a light weight interfacing. I am to lazy to drive to the store, so I will grab some really stiff old curtain fabric that my mother had lying around and use it. You can use any stiff fabric. (Note: Make sure it is lighter than the color of the fabric you are using for your shirt, preferably white.)
Fold the fabric in half use one of your cut collar pieces. Lay the "Center Back" along the fold of the fabric.
Then pin and cut. Easy.
