Londa, wow! maybe I need to get an embellishing machine. Great review! I love the color of this coat.

Great jacket in a great color with beautiful embellishments! Thanks for this great review! :-)

Beautiful, beautiful jacket!

Beautiful. The needle-felting is lovely, and I agree that the front looks much more reasonable the way you've cut it.

What a beautiful jacket. Your alterations makes it more beautiful. Love the embellishments.

Very pretty! I thought I recognized the Angelina when I viewed your photo...nice to know that it can be felted. Thanks for the review :)

Ody - it is not an embellishing machine, but the hand tool. My understanding is that the machine really, really flattens it - making it a 'part' of the fabric. I have a friend who is going to compare/test that for me...

I like your changes to this jacket. It looks much more wearable than the pattern photo and it's classy too

Beautiful jacket-love the beautiful felting! What a clever idea!

Londa: I love what you've done with this jacket: the felting really makes it a very special garment. Won't be surprised it it sold very quickly at the show.

Fabulous jacket. I have been thinking of getting one of the Clover felting thing, it has just moved up to the top of my list.

The jacket is beautiful. You were so wise to shorten it. Now I hope you will do the top. It looks gorgeous on the pattern front.

Londa, I have this pattern and attend to make the jacket out of blue green wool jersey that I purchased. May I ask how tall you are? If you are on the petite side it may be that the front was drafted too long for you by Vogue. I am 5'9" and trying to figure out if I should follow your tip of shortening the front also. Your jacket is gorgeous.

Kitty - I ama 5'8.5"... Long - it was really stylish - so start long if you have enough fabric, then perhaps shorten it to your liking...a bit at a time. I really think it depends on your own 'style' 0 where you 'go' - etc... Thrown over the shoulder it is magnificent - but though I'd love to have worn it that way - that's more 'new york' than central Illinois, I'm sad to say...

Much more elegant in the shorter length, IMO. I think it looks great with or without the felting.
