Great color! And the RevK lends itself nicely to corduroy, because you don't have to go against the cords when tapering.

I wish you luck with the hem, I'd have tackled that first before all the pleats were in place. When working cross-selvedge like that, I mark each piece separately so that seams are in the "gutter" of a pleat -- that is, hidden at the inside fold of a pleat. Of course that means finishing the raw edges inside with an overstitch, but my machine does that nicely.

Looking forward to the finished piece!
