I love this coat!

I decided to get it made before I started the next mini-wardrobe contest on PR. I am using this great orange upholstery fabric I picked up at Hobby Lobby for $2/yd!!!!!

To follow the grain when I was cutting the fabric out, I used painter’s tape. I lined it up along the grain. Then, I measured from the marked grain to the grain line on the pattern. This seems to have worked great.

Now, I’m stuck. I’m at step 7 in the instructions which tell me to show the lower backs to the upper back. Then, step 8 tells me to stay-stitch the neck.

I’m thinking they forgot to tell me to stitch the front to back at the shoulder seams. And the side seams too!!! I’ve emailed CS, so we’ll see what they tell me…
