MODULE 1 • Jacket Facing, Canvas, Felt & Shoulder Reinforcement

Step Description
1A So, now we get to what goes inside the jacket, so we begin with the exterior most part, which is our front facing. Our front facing starts about 1 ¼” (3.2cm) from our neckline. So, it’s 1 ¼” (3.2cm) here, it’s marked in red, and goes all the way down to the hem.
1B At the waist there is an inundation of 4” (10.2cm), so that is where we get a reference point here.
1C At the hip line we go in about 3” (7.6cm). Now these are all suggested measurements. Based on design and preference, they do change. But this is what a classic jacket follows.
