I watched a bit of the BBC "Victoria" series last night and managed to finish off the upper collar and perhaps about 1/5 of the back of my AC coat. I also did a final re-dying of the fabric for my suit, getting it a little closer to the burgundy color in my swatch. This morning I added a 2" panel to the sides of my Jalie jeans, which was probably a LEETLE bit too much. I'll try them on again tonight to see if I want to rip out one seam and narrow the panel a smidge. It's going to need some sort of topstitching to look nice.
I also realized (duh) that the crotch issue I've been having on my non-stretch versions is entirely due to the jeans being too tight. I'm a pear with a small waist, so when they are tight around my hips they just ride up and up towards the narrower parts of my body. That's the problem, not the crotch curve.
