Notes | 02/12/2018 I'm using a very fussy fabric which frays easily to make this coat so I am zig-zag stitching all of the edges immediately after cutting out. 03/12/2018 Both fronts are completed with welt pockets, both backs are cut out and all is sewn together. First try on and the fit is lovely, I'm a bit nervous to see the shoulders sitting quite wide but there is a 5/8" seam allowance and of course it will have pads. It's coming together nicely 04/12/2018 One lapel is on as is half of the collar. It’s really starting to take shape now which is exciting 05/12/2018 Both sides of the lapel and the collar are on 06/12/2018 One of the sleeves was giving me massive bother because the notches were a bit unclear, but after a few unpicks and repositions it's in with head and pad in place. Next is second sleeve (ugh). I had to remove the sleeve button placket because I didn't fit the length to my boyfriend before cutting out and it turns out he has little arms :) He'll have to have a straight sleeve without any features on the cuffs but that's fine. 08/12/2018 Both sleeves are done so that’s all for the outer fabric! Now I need to construct and insert the lining 13/12/2018 It's completely finished now so I will take some pictures over the weekend to submit to the weekly competition |
