Teal Tweed

I haven't stopped work on this jacket, but it won't be wearable until Fall now, so I haven't been frantically trying to finish it

I put one sleeve in as per the suggestions here and love it. http://2bsewing.blogspot.com/2009/05/another-butterick-5223in-works.html
I put the other one in the usual way and will have to re-do it. Guess how I will be doing it the second time?

You did a great job on that sleeve head. These are hard, but a little easier in these tweeds...2BSewing had a great tut on the sleeve head and like her, I put in a lot of pins to get all the fabric to go in and easier to sew...I'm sure you'll show it to us when you're finished.

Sleeve heads make all the differenc in how a tailored sleeve hangs. Nice job.
