This suit I have put off making since last June, the reason… being scared! I’ve managed to never make a men’s jacket before and although I have made plenty of pairs of trousers over the last few years, I’m not particularly fond of fly zips.

SO I have finally got my act together cleared a few days to crack on with making this linen suit for my dad.

I found it quite hard teaching myself to tailor the jacket but it was a challenge and I’m really happy with the final result!
