Rhoda K said... I agree on the ruffles and fuss, too, but your jacket is gorgeous. I love your fabric as well. 9/9/09 10:44 AM
Bunsnpigs said... The fabric IS gorgeous. I saw this pattern and thought the same thing.. it is just outside my comfort zone. Your execution is beautiful, and I am sure you look great in it, too. I can't wait to see the pic of you in it. 9/9/09 12:41 PM
Michele Lommasson said... I enjoyed reading about your jacket. I think it's quite cute; your fabric choices were great. I'm pretty sure you're going to love wearing it as soon as you've had a few days away from messing with it. 9/9/09 12:47 PM
Coastal Connie said... I think it looks adorable~! I'd love to see a picture with you wearing it, and a couple other views (side, back). I know, jackets always seem to take so long. I have one I started in April, and got stopped on it when the hips were too narrow...argh. Guess I'm getting motivated to tackle it again, by your post 9/9/09 5:09 PM
