After a first fitting of the toile on Wednesday were good to
go on making up the final workwear jacket & work shirt in
2 shades of navy blue cotton twill in varying weights.
Collar point has been moved forward along with a reduction
in the height of the collar stand.
Pinning the rolled hem before sewing, tricky even with all those pins.

Petrochemical plants, made in 1978 about 10 miles away.
