Loading...Initial idea from Jesse from Nairobi:
Hello Urban Change Lab.

Neck: 17
Shoulders: 18
Chest: 40
Stomach: 36
Waist ("Bodice", she measured from shoulder to waist): 19
Bicep: 13
Armhole: 20
Wrist: 9
Sleeve length: 26
Jacket length: 27Thank you.

The story of the project:
Negotiation phase
I'd love to make an offer for your idea. I've attached a few material examples that range between 1500 Kenya shillings and 4000 Kenya shillings, for you to choose from.Kindly let me know which one you like best.
Regards,
Nyambura.
thanks for your quick answer. I'd prefer the first or the last design, how much would I have to pay for the whole jacket on both options (including labour)? Do you eventually have another two or three design options that you could share with me?
Thanks in advance.
Best,
Jesse
I found a few more fabrics. Kindly have a look and let me know what you like. I've also indicated the prices as all of them cost 1500/-
Thanks in advance.
Best,
Jesse
Many Thanks,
Nyambura.
Production phase
Kind Regards,
Looking forward to seeing the progress
Best,
Jesse
Please see the attached photo of both the fabric as picked today and the drafted pattern for the jacket, being the first step towards constructing it.
Many Thanks,
Nyambura
Alright,
I look forward to seeing more.
Best,
Jesse.
Here we are so far…
The first three, are photos of the jacket front, back and sleeves.
The fourth, shows the front and back pieces joined together.
The 5th and 6th photo are of the jacket back and front respectively.
The last photo shows how the jacket looks with the sleeves attached.
I begin the final steps of adding light jersey lining and black rib knit (the trim on the neck, hem and sleeves of the jacket) tomorrow and will update you by end of day.
Many Thanks,
Nyambura.
Just seen the photos. The jacket looks nice. Can't wait to see the final outcome

Jesse.
