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.



Placing 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.
