Altering a jacket

     I am currently altering a jacket to make it larger to fit a client. My solution was to put additional fabric on the side seams that goes up the side to the armpit and then down the sleeve to a point about halfway down the sleeve.

I had to rip out the side seams from the hem up the sides and half way down the sleeve seam.

I placed an inserted extra piece of fabric starting under the arms. It is a partial godet. (Pointed only under the arms and then straight down the sides).
