Update!

Just before Eisirt had to leave for work I was ready for him to try on the jeans. The belt loops were still flapping loose, and there was basting thread at the edge of the lining, but the waistband was all done.
And it fits great! Look at this!



I don't have enough hem tape to finish it, but I prepared the rest of the documents that need to accompany it when I hand it in and I made a list of the last haberdasheries I need to pick up tomorrow/later this week.

Tomorrow I start on the blazer! I've just traced the last pattern pieces, so I'm ready to go to sit down and relax for a bit.
