Notched collar

Just have to show a picture of the notched collar. Earlier this year I tried the method that is described in Threads when Nancy K wrote about that article. Now I’ve used the method in a real jacket and I’m quite pleased. I made a few pictures of construction that I’ve not uploaded yet, not too sure you can see much on them. Working with a mostly black fabric is not too easy for pictures.

  1. Isn't it a treat to find such an easy method? I've tried a lot of methods and this is by far gives the most consistently good results.
    Your lapels look fabulous.

  2. This is gonna be a great jacket. It looks very promising, I'm looking forward to the end-result!

    I'd like to answer your question as to where I order my fabric on internet.
    I often buy at 'De Stoffenstunter' and 'De Lapjesschuur'. They both have a great variety of fabrics. De Lapjesschuur has a lot of notions too! Their prices are low and service is really good, in my experience.

  4. Beautifully done. I love all the details, BTW, they either give me ideas to try or inspire me to do better in my own sewing.
