Mermie said... Great review! Love your jacket.
Unfortunately, I agree about the sleeve sizing in LH and TS patterns.
If I lived in Carmel, I'd be shark bait. 8/28/08 3:53 PM

cecelia said... The jacket is beautiful. I too have found her sleeves to be very long and narrow, so you're not the only one. I've found muslins to be a good idea, even though I'd rather be sewing the real thing right off. 8/28/08 4:13 PM

Annette1 said... Yes, "MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ME," I'd be saying. :o) BEAUTIFUL jacket, those COLORS and that WONDERFUL lining. Absolutely NOT, this is no wadder! :o) I know your next one will be perefctly fitted in the sleeves, too (just as this one will end up being). ;o) 8/29/08 0:59 AM
Ronda Rae said... Gorgeous fabric and beautiful jacket. I am getting ready to use my first LH pattern so your review was extremely helpful. Maybe they don't have grocery stores in Carmel. 8/29/08 5:41 AM
