This is still a work in progress. Sleeves inserted. This was a difficult task given the thickness of fabric and the nature of the fabric. When fitting is finalized the seams will be trimmed to 1/4 inch.

  1. You have made great progress on this jacket. I thought about making it too and am glad you bit the bullet first so I can learn from you. I've worked with this type of fabric before and found that setting the sleeves is easier when you eliminate most of the ease from the sleeve cap. You managed to set them well. I'm sure you will be happy when you are able to strut your stuff in this stylish jacket.
