| SusiM | 2/8/09 | It loks very nice in the photo. Sorry about all that work for something that's not quite right. I usually compare the measurements of a well-fitting RTW garment in my closet with the pattern so I know where I'm at on the sizing. Try that next time. |

| Karen8320 | 2/10/09 | The jacket looks good in your photo so it's a shame that it actualy doesn't feel right on you. Fitting is sometimes a complicated process and I would encourage you to keep going wiht getting things right. That is the joy of sewing - getting things fitting well. Keep at it! |

| val from oz | 2/10/09 | Your jacket looks nice in spite of all the fitting issues. Perhaps you can take what you've already learnt about modifiying the fit and make a muslin? In any case I also encourage you to keep on going. |

| Avienndha | 3/7/09 | Thank you everyone for such good suggestions! I will most certainly take them into account next time I make something so fitted. And I will make a muslin : ) |
