We probably have different definitions of 'works'. I prefer Paul's biblical definition. A work is something we do for pay. It is earning our way to salvation. Grace is a gift freely given. But "doing" something is not a "work". Again, I ask you, which does Jesus condemn, the action, or the attitude? THAT is what is important, friend. Doing something is ultimately required of us. But it is our internal attitudes and dispositions that determine whether it is a "work" in Paul's definition. NO ONE condemns actions! Everyone condemns that attitude where we earn our way to heaven.
Thus, fasting and tithing are not "burdens" when we do them in the spirit of love. We WILLINGLY do these things because we know they will bring us closer to our Love. As to the rest, you worry about the minors and are forgeting the majors. Paul calls himself father. Those garments are no more "fine" then the three-piece suit that Protestant ministers wear.

You still wear three piece suits?
