Please excuse the messiness of my room!
The right side in this photo still needs a line of trim and some hand stitching.
Lots of little bits of finishing now, to wrap up all the raw edges and make it all nice and DONE. All the buttons here are pinned on to show the full impact of the final products, with the embroidered buttons running down the front, on the cuffs, and the pocket flaps as well.
I'm quite proud of how this is looking. That's a lot of POW!
