The Black and White of B5427

On Tuesday evening I finished the second suit made from Butterick 5427. It's not much different than the black suit finished last week. I put trim down the center front and sewed the buttonholes over that. Here are a few photos. Hopefully, I'll get pictures of my client wearing it.

Before the buttons were added

This time I came closer to the "V" shaped neckline.

  17. Thanks, everyone, for your kind words. Nancy K - The trim on the black jacket was hand sewn. On the white jacket, I was able to sew it on before joining with the other pieces of the jacket.

    Thanks again,
    Cennetta
