After TG#4 will be No. 1. There are many constrains for the suitability of a cloth for a first-time coatmaker. It has to be wool, it should not have stripes nor checks, it shouldn't be >S100's, it shouldn't be barathea, it should be heavy (>10oz/sq yard or 310g/sq meter) and etc. And since I live in Malaysia, the only sort of cloth that resolves those constraints and is still wearable without causing heatstroke is fresco.
So I bought this:

This weekend is a very short one for me and I will not work on TG#4 this weekend nor on the next. I wish I could go faster but this is the fastest I can go while keeping my life in balance.
EDIT: Stole some time and completed the felling of the edge tape and the cross stitching of the bridle for the right side of the jacket.
