Did you bias bind the neckline/armholes of the shell or is that folded over & stitched as well? 9/9/03 2:14 AM

Sew it seams said... This outfit is great Ann. I love the fabric. It looks great on you and it looks like it would be very comfortable as well. 9/9/03 8:36 AM
Skymom said... That is marvelous, Ann. What a great adaptation of a pattern that, it now appears, is a classic even if it started out kind of dated. A friend of mine happens to be wearing an Eileen Fisher two-sided linen outfit today that's very much like yours, with the edges turned out to show the reverse. Wonderful effect. 9/9/03 9:51 AM

Ann Smith said... Mel.J: yes I bound the neckline/armholes of the shell and neckline of the jacket. I forgot to mention that. I think it is a stronger finish for those spots that get so much wear. 9/9/03 10:57 AM
sewywabbit said... Nice job! Surprisingly enough, I have this pattern, purchased last year when I was on a vintage pattern tear. You have inspired me to dig it out and have a look. There goes my getting anything done today! 9/9/03 11:23 AM
