In the further adventures of the Tailored Coat....

And so it continues...
I'm now moving on to the back panels. The pleat detail from the front shoulder carries through to the back yoke. This took quite a while to match up at the centre back seam, and in the end had to resort to traditional hand-tacking methods (something i don't use often), to get them to line up. The pleated panel is also backed onto a base fabric and fused for extra support.
Underneath the back yoke, a series of vertical panels help to give a good fit at the back and eliminate my sway back problem. Sway backs causes clothes to bunch or sag at the small of your back, but can be accommodated with clever cutting in the seams.
