Coat no.2 – almost there...



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!

I see there is a place in Soho called DM Buttonholes. Don't suppose you've heard anything about it? (Perhaps during your Savile Row days?) I mean I guess there's only so far you could go wrong with a machine... I hope...!
