My jacket is coming along very slowly. Not because I have no time to make it but because I really need to be careful because I have not made anything this challenging for very many years.
This is the side view - worn by Harriet
You can just see the gingham pocket lining at the bottom left of the picture.

Facings you interface and overlock along the long side. I am just hoping I have this bit right!
The pattern says to sew up the side seams so I have done so but usually I do the sleeve seams and side seams at the same time for neatness so I am assuming the sleeve seams do not align with the side seams. I hope so anyway else its all getting more difficult than it needs to be. I have to do the collar ruffles next and attach them and then the front facings and put in the sleeves. Then just do the closures. I say "just" but really I suspect this will be one of the most difficult bits!
Hopefully I will get this finished for the 13th September. Its getting a bit close now. I also still have to put the waistband on my gingham leggings!
Thanks for reading and come back soon for the rest of this garment which I hope to finish by next week.
