Sew4Fun said... This is gorgeous Tany!! I would wear it in an instant. Funny thing is I bought this exact pattern yesterday for the pants (which I'm in the middle of sewing) and I thought to myself I'd never, ever make the jacket. Now I'm having second thoughts. :) I can't wait to see how your pants turn out. I have no doubt they will be spectacular. 3/7/09 7:34 PM

Erica B. said... When I was making the pants, I didn't care for the jacket... AT ALL. Now that I've seen yours, I wish I had made it when I had the same fabric as the pants. It's so fabulous! The contrasting topstitching really makes the jacket.
