This is advanced! I am excited to give it a go. I'm using a dry oilskin fabric -- I am assuming no interfacing and no tailor tacks. And I was thinking of using snaps (poppers) for my buttons but not sure if this would work with this button placket construction. Any insight would be helpful! Thanks.
If this jacket closes left over right which side does the buttons go on? I’m making it for a man it’s doing my head in trying to figure out if I should reverse this, as in its original pattern state and instructions it is for a woman’s jacket where the buttons are on the right hand side Im I correct ? lol
I bought the PDF version, mostly to read the instructions, but possibly to make my own when my current fails. Or in a totally non chore fabric. Thanks for this. The trick to a tutorial is to use contrasting fabrics to show the process and the finished fabric to show what it can look like. That way, you have useful instruction and aspirational content.
fab thanks, cant wait to make mine. you should do more of these videos if youre able to

Great video. Thank you for making this. White stitching would be more visible.
More of these videos would a great help. For example, I would love to master the side pocket and button fastening of the Shephard Skirt.
