Tutorial, part 14 - Piping and Front Facings

Using your zipper/piping foot, sew your ⅛" twisted/braided gold metallic piping to the entire jacket front and neckline, including hem facings, stitching close to piping.



Your jacket should now look like this: 



Sew the front yoke facing (piece L) to the back yoke facing (piece M), right sides together. 

Clip seam allowances and press open, or serge seam allowances. 

Repeat for the other side. 



Sew the yoke facing assembly to the front/zipper facing (piece K) with ½" seam allowance, right sides together.

Clip seam allowances to ¼" or ⅛" and press open. 

Serge the outer edges of the front/neckline facing assembly. 


















Using your zipper/piping foot, sew the front/neckline facing assembly to the jacket body, right sides facing, matching seams and stitching close to piping. 

Turn the facings under and press. 

Your jacket should look like this - getting excited yet?
