How about that tie.
I quickly stitched the Groom's tie. And I started to work on the vertebra and ribs, but quickly realized I didn't have a good place to start or tie off, as the ribcage is open. You must be careful not to let the thread travel behind the ribs. I did the vertebra first starting at the top and going straight down. Then I needed the lapels to bury threads for the ribs. I may regret stitching the lapels before the coat as the lapels are "above" the coat. But I will take a chance. Happy Stitching!

I think you did the right thing stitching the lapels when you did. Love the tie, but those teeth are a riot!
ReplyDeleteAren't they funny. They will look even better when I put in the line between the uppers and lowers. He is one happy guy!
