Michiko coat manufacturing in final fabric.
Here's how I've manufactured the Michiko coat in my final fabric.
- I first cut out all of the patterns in my final fabric and overlock the raw edges.
- I then start with back pattern pieces first. I sew the back side panel to the centre back panel with 1.5cm seam allowance. Then I knotch the curve seams and pressed it open.
- I do the same on the other side of the back panel pieces.
- Then I sew down the centre back with 1.5cm seam allowance and pressed the seams open.
I also had to make sure the curve seam match perfectly
- Then I move onto the front panels of the michiko coat.
- I sew the front side panel and the centre front panel together with 1.5cm seam allowance. Then I knotch and press the seam open.
- Then I do the same for the other side.
- I then sew the side seams together with 1.5cm seam allowance. I press the seams open.
- I did the same on the other side.
- Then I sew the shoulder seams together with 1.5cm seam allowance. And the press the seams open.
- I then do the same on the other side.
- I then made up the sleeves but before I sew the sleeves together I have to sew the zip vent first.
- Then I sew the sleeve to the arm hole with 1.5cm seam allowance. I kotch and pressed the seams open.
- I did the same on the other side.
- Then i finished the edge of the sleeves by sewing a bias binding. I did the same on the other side.

Fittings week done...
Last week was fittings week for our end of the year fashion show in my college. Thankfully I have fitted all I my garments for my collection without the models dropping out or etc. I am very excited for the fashion show but I am also panicking because I have bits and pieces to do to finish a garment. Here's what my garment looks like on the models.
