Hi all! I've been reading all the tips and tricks on the big build thread as well as on the Padmé FB group. I finally started working on my pattern for the coat today. The one that I purchased to modify was really off in the sizing, so I took something I used for a jacket previously and tried to alter it.

I can't figure out how to get the collar not to wrinkle on the side like it it's doing. Also, did you make the collar pieces (1 per bodice side) join in the back, or was it all one big piece?

That's looking great! The color shape is spot-on. For mine, I made a collar seam in the center back, so that I could keep the nap of the velvet on the front pieces going in the same direction.

Hey Jenna,

Great! I've managed to mess up bagging the sleeve lining but it will be attempt #2 tonight! *crosses fingers*
