I am trying to learn how to do button holes by hand for the coat and considering where I am in the basic learning curve, I am not too unhappy with the progress.
I would consider the best so far good enough for my coat but the problem remaining is that they are much nicer looking on the top side than the bottom. I presume they should look the same from both sides?
My coat is double breasted so the lapel would have the not so pretty side showing when not buttoned unless I stitched it upside down.
Is there any particular trick to making both sides look the same?
