sewing a jacket. what is the fiber? Lining? are you confused about the shape? -- -- Kate, http://systems.cs.colorado.edu/~koli...f-formula.html Mom to Ursula (10), Sage (7.5), Benno (4!!)

The suit is part poly, part wool fabric. The lining is
the usual poly satin like lining fabric. After hanging ( this does not get worn often ) there are wrinkles in the back fabric that run from the shoulder down towards the middle of the back. There are also some on the front of the jacket. I do keep it covered from dust and hung on a shaped wooden hanger (the one that came with the suit). I'm looking for ironing tips to keep it fresh looking when necessary. Would padding the hanger possibly help with this? I've never sewn a suit jacket before, so I do not have that knowledge to draw upon. heather wrote: what are the problems?
