Quilting(?) under armhole
Hi all, this is not strictly related to the course, but I recently inherited this 1950s morning coat and I was looking at the construction (as I can't help but do nowadays...), and wondered what this was/its purpose? Is it particular to morning coats or is it ever used in lounge coat making?
I have tried googling morning coat construction (just curious, not planning on embarking on it just yet!) but results are rather thin on the ground.

Ah, makes sense!
Fortunately, the fit isn't too bad on it (infuriatingly, probably better than the coat I'm making right now!) Could do with some improvement probably, but for that I'll have to wait till you release your morning coat series Rory 😉
