Wool & ventile jacket Mk 2 finished

[topknot]

Hi, I have finshed my MK 2 wool & ventile jacket that i was making for a winter project. In the end i do not put the flaps on over pockets, because they are closed with zips. Can you spot the mistake, not that its a problem.
All comments welcome.
Thank you for looking.

After wearing it i might put a drawcord around the middle.

Hi Shewie,
Yes it was made on a domestic sewing machine that i got from a car boot sale . The machine needed a bit of tlc .

That looks absolutely topknotch. (Did you see what I did there?)

Seriously, that looks very nice indeed. I've looked for a while, but can't spot the mistake.

The sleeve pockets are not symmetrical.

I blagged an ancient one off a guy at work who was clearing out his deceased mother inlaws loft

Seriously, that looks very nice indeed. I've looked for a while, but can't spot the mistake.

Is it something to do with the sleeves, one looks different to the other, could just be the photo though

Are the front pockets lower than you originally intended or is it a trick question .

Very nice, im gonna have to get a sewing machine.

 

[Dougster]

If you left the cuffs off one and made it rather large around the tum, I'd buy it.

Brilliant as ever fella.

It looks very good.

Hi, Thank you all for the comments.
ZPD - 189 , yes i'm left handed.
The 3rd pic give it away , two different colour ventile cloth. I had some left over from my ventile smock that i made up . I used this up first (its not cheap) then had to buy some more to finish it off when i got the ventile the colour was darker not that its a problem to me . All my kit is made up on this sewing machine. push the pedal and go.
As to making them sorry no.

Cheers Topknot.
