Hello All,
I am constructing a Confederate RD III and am curious as to what was used for interfacing in originals. I have heard and seen (through a display case at a museum) that a burlap-type material was used. Can anyone confirm or deny this?
I just don't want to limit this discussion to interfacings on RD IIIs, but if you have info on what you've seen in other jackets, please post away. I'd also like to see what folks have to say about civilian garments, which I assume varied widely as to interfacing, but give me what you've got.
