Today i put the finishing touches to my jacket, i stitched the buttons on, and gave the jacket a light press, to get rid of any wrinkles. When i put the jacket on the stand and stepped away to have a look at the way it was hanging, i noticed that a small section at the back of the jacket on the hem wasn't sitting right, Graham also pointed it out to me and suggested i unpick that section of the jacket hem to release the lining which seems to be pulling the top fabric.
The only problem i have is that to put the black trim on the jacket i had to trim away the cloth and lining seam allowance, so i dont have much lining to release. My plan is to sew on the chain weight, and see if it does it job, to help the fabric hang.
If i had more time i would certainly unpick the back of the jacket hem and try and loosen the lining, so this will be something i will do after hand in before Kelly wears the suit.
I will not let Kelly wear the suit until it looks perfect.
This is my challenge!
