Calico Jacket

I wanted to check the fit of the jacket as I will not have the chance to do a fitting, this also give me the opportunity to alter the pattern before cutting out in top fabric.

Here are some photos of the calico jacket on my model:

The CF sites in the right place as I have added an extra allowance of 4cm. The jacket length also has the extra seam allowance, and will sit in the correct place for the style of the jacket as it quite short. I was concerned about the size of the armhole for the jacket to compensate a waistcoat though taking out the SA totaling 4cm, it will give plenty of room.    

The side seam bottom is left open as it has a side slit.


The back also fits correctly.
