Hello,
I know there are few indepth researchers of Confederate officer jackets around here. Can a few Confederate uniform tailors please stand up!?
I am working on a officers model "homeprocured" shell jacket and would like to know the best lining combination. I have been told a quilted lining would be nice, but I did'nt want to make it that complex. What about interfacing? Should a interfacing of osnaburg or drill just go along the edge of the coat or fill the entire fronts? Can anyone who has examined any original officer type C.S. jackets give me an idea on the lining issue.
The only sources I have for research are a host of uniform digests, namely EOG which does not show detail on the inside of jackets.
Thanks for all your intrest,
