First Fit Report

We didn't fill a first fit report for the first toile review but were given the file and told to fill the form with our comments for the second toile review

The second toile review was in week 7. Even though they seemed minor, there were quite a few changed in the design. I finally got rid of the double sleeve. I got both the sleeves pleated. In the last toile review I had alot of issues with the cape movement and it took 4 pattern pieces just to make the cape sleeve which resulted in problems with the hem of the jacket. No matter what the hem of the cape was uneven, either too curved or straight.

The other problem was the rever and the lining. The rever had to be bagged out and then attached to the cape, and so I had to make sure I got the cape opening to align with all the pieces.

Even though this was possible it was making a simple task tedious and so I was asked to simply split a normal sleeve and make that into an open cape sleeve rather than ruining the pleats with the uneven cape pieces and ill cut cape opening.

The hood was also a problem at this point. The shape of the hood was too pointy and had too much room towards the back. It was also tight. It didn't fit the way I wanted it to and so I had to change the pattern in a way that would extend it upwards without making the room at the back wider.
