Turned back cuffs?

19 years ago

Hi, I am constructing a long frock coat and was wondering if anyone could give some advice on putting together the turned back cuffs it will have. They are of a contrasting fabric. I have never attempted them before so any help would be much appreciated. Thanks very much.

Your seam is on the right side of the coat fabric & when the cuff turns back, it conceals the seam. Finish the cuff & insert it into the sleeve opening & sew it. If your coat is lined, have the lining in place in the sleeve when you attach the cuff.
