Couture Made Jacket

Using a simple pattern and a variety of finishing techniques you will construct a jacket with a couture look. We will use several seam finishes such as Hong Kong seam, flat felt seam and French seams. You will also learn how easy it is to do a bound buttonhole. These techniques can be applied to any of your future projects for an eleganT couture look.
