Iron the stay 2 the wrong side of the collar pieces.
NB; iron d stay2only the under collar and not the upper collar. So that the upper part of the collar ends up looking much neater...

Mark ur pivot points and When turning the corner of your collar, stop just short of your pivot mark and sink your needle into the fabric prior to lifting the presser foot up. Raise it, pivot, and see if you are on your mark for the seam allowance. If not, return to the proper position and turn the hand wheel forward to move another stitch. If a full stitch will over shoot your mark, turn down the stitch length to move forward a smaller amount

Trim the entire collar seam allowance down to around 1/4 inch. This will create a smooth curve around the entire collar and is better than clipping or notching.

So dats it guys...!!
