I've sewn in the sleeves. So I'm almost at the finish line – but I thought I'd just get some final input before I do anything which I don't want to reverse!
As you can see, I *was* going to lengthen the back hem, but I'm not sure. Depending on how upright I'm standing at any particular moment, it seems slightly too short or about right. Should I err on the side of "too long or about right", and lengthen?
The other thing is that the sleeve heads seem to be coming out too far, so I get an indent. Can correct this? Do I just need to press it in a particular way, or take out some wadding, or is it a problem with the sleeve itself?
Thanks!
That’s a really decent effort and you should be very proud of yourself. There are a few small issues but my suggestion would be to finish it and enjoy the fruits of your labour. Savile Row tailors do say it takes three coats to get the prefect fit.
