I'll follow up these suggestions and feel more confident now about adding a lightweight interfacing.Dillianderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17377816590625672755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3886486056245673401.post-32883806069778254302009-09-27T04:24:15.301-07:002009-09-27T04:24:15.301-07:00I interfaced my previous jacket - I had to as it w...I interfaced my previous jacket - I had to as it was so lightweight and loosely woven. I used a lightweight iron-on interfacing called BVM4 (everywhere including the sleeves. I actually applied the interfacing before cutting the fabric out. If you are interested in trying BVM4 it is available from Felicity at forfrockssake.com.au. I then hand quilted the jacket as machine quilting would have shown on the fashion fabric. The jacket is still soft and cadigan-y.

A picture is here: http://picasaweb.google.nl/lh/photo/e5p10Nv4gj0Q5HqoqLDnQA?feat=directlink<br /><br />Then the seam allowances (trimmed) were catchstitched to the jacket. In the end the center front part could have used extra interfacing at the neckline, it tends to flip over a bit. I will mention all details in a review later this week.Sigridhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16187364244385056641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3886486056245673401.post-9891085268534072722009-09-26T22:51:34.055-07:002009-09-26T22:51:34.055-07:00Sandra I don't mind at all.

I still need to figure out how to do an adjustment for the centre front neck edge which overlaps just a smidge when I do up the hooks and eyes on my previous jacket which I would like to fix for this and other jackets.<br /><br />Sue had a loose weave fabric for her previous jacket and she interfaced hers (Sue please chip in here) with a light weight interface she uses, and she quilted it as well. I was thinking of using Sheerweft and intend to do a test soon.Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14691687252337993643noreply@blogger.com
