ADD BUTTONS OR SNAPS TO THE CENTER FRONT
Try on the jacket to mark the buttonholes/snaps before sewing. The center front is 5/8″ (1.5 cm) from the front edge.
The pattern is designed for 1/2″ (12.7 mm) buttons to fit between the first two rows of topstitching. You will want a button at the full bust and then spaced evenly, anywhere between 2.375″ (6 cm) to 3.5″ (9 cm) down the center front.
Use fray check before opening the buttonholes.
