Reducing coat size

Hi Rory and HTA members.

I need to reduce my pocket baste by 1.5 inches.


Can I reduce the side body by 3/4" on both sides? Is that too much? I want to prevent the cross pockets from moving too close to the front edge.

If you take it off the side body you’ll have to straighten it the same amount and then reduce the front chest as well.
