Questions

I want to make a caban jacket and line it with some icewool for additional warmth. But now I am unsure where to put the icewool, and how to fixate it? Is it

"Outer fabric/icewool/horsehair/lining" or rather

"Outer fabric/horsehair/icewool/lining"

?

Should I fixate the icewool to one of the layers somehow, with a pad stitch maybe? or should I attach it only at the seam allowances? I hope I got all the english technical terms right :-)

Thank you so much!

I’m putting together a tailors board. I think that is what this is called. I watched your video on YouTube about supplies needed and I have been upgrading my sewing shop. It’s a rather large wooden table. 33x72. Should I cover the entire table? I have the room for it but I didn’t know if I need my table to be that large? I plan on covering with industrial felt but I’m not sure how thick , and if I can’t find mole skin, what other options could I use for covering the felt?

I've been using the excellent traditional model videos along with Simplicity s8962 to make a suit jacket. I have a pattern drafted that fits me pretty well with a muslin mockup, but now I'm unsure how to go about drafting or altering pattern pieces for the lining. Are there any resources or general strategies for this?

Hello!

I’m currently trying the sleeve draft and I had to stop because I’m getting a huge sleeve with my personal pattern.

I think it’s related with alteration 15 on the traditional model fitting.

I don’t understand how we could do that alteration without having a huge impact on the width of the sleeve, if we move the point on the side panel 1 inch inwards we would be making the sleeve 1 inch smaller.

Back to my personal pattern, that point is about 2 inches outwards towards the back. Wouldn’t that be making my sleeve 2 inches bigger than the comparable sleeve in a pattern with that alteration done?
