Required Materials, Supplies, Notions, etc.

FABRIC:

* Black wool gabardine = 2 yards

* Division color wool gabardine = ¾ yard

* Underlining fabric = 2 yards

* Fusible midweight interfacing = ¾ yard

* Lining = 2 yards

* Black spandex = ½ yard

ACCESSORIES, SUPPLIES, NOTIONS, etc.: 

* 1 spool of black thread

* 1 spool of division-color thread

* 1 pair of shoulder pads

* 1 yard of 2" elastic

* 1 communicator of your choice

Also, a serger is HIGHLY recommended; it will not only make your workflow easier and sewing room cleaner (fewer threads, frays, etc. all over the place), but it will also prolong the life of the garment itself by keeping the pattern pieces and seams in better condition.
