Over the last few days we have been getting the toile ready for the first fitting.
Below are some process photos showing the cartridge pleating on the back.
 |
| Before stitching we drew a grid on the wrong side of the fabric. The vertical lines were 0.75cm apart and then 4 horizontal lines to space our stitching out evenly. |
 |
| After folding the seam allowance under and adding wadding it was a bit hard to see our lines, especially on the CB seam. Therefore at points we had to add pins to make sure our pleats were even. |

| Sewing the pleats to the design line on the bottom of the yoke. We pinned the centres together to make sure an even amount of fabric was on each side. |

 |
| The curve of the wing is too rounded because we are unable to sew the ribbon to it without making folds. We will need to adjust this line during fitting. |
