Great jacket! Looks like you are no longer a beginner if you can make a jacket like that. Love the design.

The gold trim was an excellent way to finish this off! It looks very nice.

I love your jacket--it's so unusual with the fabric you used and the bias trim. I did that at first too--cutting too large, and my garments were too big in the shoulders. You're right--the camera doesn't lie, darn!

Marec, your jacket looks very good. You wisely used that fabric. The colours are wonderful on you. Again, you give me inspiration.

I have not yet been brave enough to tackle a jacket - kudos to you for this great job. It is lovely.

Great looking jacket and I agree that you could use a multitude of different fabrics for this.

Very pretty, great way to show off your fabric. Good advice, also. I find the camera a very useful sewing tool.
