Ladies jacket Completed

Good afternoon, my wife's donegal tweed jacket is completed. I was able to find leather football buttons that she requested.


All in all I am pleased with the results but I do see some room for improvement. I had a very hard time getting the sleeves in and unfortunately a slight divot at the back of the crowns remain. Although Gosia is happy to wear it the way it is.


I'm glad I made further corrections recommend by Rory and forum members after the fit bar finish as it did clean the back up very well. I did flatten both crowns of the sleeve cap by 1/4inch like on the video although I was apprehensive to remove more.


Any comments and suggestion on how to improve for the next jacket would be much appreciated.
