Seamingly Simple said... What a wonderful accent piece for your cruise wardrobe. You'll need a tropical drink to balance it, don't you think? 1/6/08 5:33 PM
sewbehind said... You must be feeling pretty good about yourself since this was all from your stash. Great jacket. I like your placement of the palm leaf so that it has a really nice line. Not matched, per se, but it has a nice flow. 1/6/08 6:06 PM
Annette1 said... WOW! First of all, "ALL FABRIC AND TRIM FROM THE STASH" -- I'm impressed! :o) Secondly, look how you've got the design flowing from one side to the other. It's just perfect. AND I can't wait to try your idea of sewing the strips of fashion fabric to the lining before cutting. Next time I have something where the lining goes clear to the edge, I hope I remember that. This is beautiful, Clin. You could do one up with buttons/loops instead of frogs, nad nobody would ever know it was the same pattern. Besides, most people don't think in terms of "patterns" anyway. Tell your hubby he doesn't know it yet, but y'all are actually going on TWO cruises, heh-heh-heh. :o) 1/6/08 6:27 PM
