Suit Tailoring Series: Hemming a Suit Jacket

Warning, this one is not for the faint of heart!
I do, however firmly believe that it can be for everyone. Read on, if you are feeling courageous!

This procedure will take you methodically step by step through shortening the length of a suit jacket. Beginning with the front panel at the bottom edge of the rounded lapel and moving back through one or two vents we will work our way step-by-step across the bottom of the jacket. Simliar to many tailoring procedures, this one has very specific steps and a unique order of operations where each step heavily impacts the next.
