Burda 7576 - Jacket, Uppercollar

Not much happening in my sewing world this week unfortunately, I've only managed to work on joining the uppercollar to the front facing.  Why is it that instruction writers always seem to go light on words in the really tricky areas of the construction?  Is it because for them it's an easy step, or, perhaps they're just as confused and keep it brief so they don't get found out!  Anyhow, it was tricky and fiddly getting a nice neat corner on the join - it was a 3rd time lucky situation!

Feels like progress has been slow after such a good start, but I know that once the collar is done, the rest should come together quite quickly....

    Oh my gosh that does look tricky to sew ! Maybe that's why I haven't ventured into tailoring too much yet !

    Here is a great tutorial on Flickr with a great way for setting in and padding arm seams in Jackets. This photo tutorial uses a different Burda pattern but the notes and information are very informative. Good luck.
