Nice workmanship!

As to the corduroy; I think the volume of the fabric "eats" some space too, especially when curved in layers...

It looks a nice linnen quality!

Cheers, Hendrick

That looks great! Love the pleated pockets, too, that sends the vibe in a fun direction

Thank you all! 

The fabric is 100% linen with a fairly fine weave.  I don't remember where I got it. 

For peterle:  Have patience, by the tenth jacket I'll have the sleeves at the proper length  ;)

Did you use any hair canvas?

Yes, one layer of lightweight hair canvas in the shoulder, reinforced with a strip of bias collar canvas in the upper shoulder.  Per the Cabrera method.
