Ahhh tailoring, our love/hate relationship continues. I really want to love you, please let try and make it work!!
Notes from Glenda:
-no canvas in the under arm
-also note the wavy line, it is there to make the canvas less apparent.
-don't press leading edge of pleats
-can leave tacking in
-last pleat should kick in
-pleat size and number up to you :)
-don't catch canvas at shoulder seam
-large stitch for shoulder seam
-sleeve out for 2nd fitting
-mark lining
LINING
when putting lining in layout top fabrics face down and put lining in, match up seams and prick stitch along seams
put tacking rows across chest
NOTE: putting the lining in on the jacket is going to be pretty much the same as the sample bodice that we're working on with Eileen so refer to those notes! ....oh yeah and that was the one week that I missed :P le sigh
-for sleeves I'll be putting in a false placket and buttons
-sleeves need to be backed
