Elona said... In the pattern photo, both versions look quite matronly, as you put it so well, even a bit bathrobe-like. It looks much better on you, BTW, but a really good pattern shouldn't make you feel that it needs a pin or accessories or something to dress it up. 2/4/04 1:48 PM
drsue said... Ann: somehow part of my post got deleted. Other reviewers noted that the pattern ran small; did you find this to be true also? 2/4/04 1:49 PM

MaryBeth said... Ann, this is the nicest Lugano I've ever seen. Excellent decisions! 2/4/04 1:57 PM
Ann Smith said... DrSue, I don't think it ran small as it fit me without my usual adding for bust size. The sleeves are loose too. Not very shapely. Elona, I agree. I rated this pattern easy to sew but not highly recommended! 2/4/04 2:53 PM

AnneM said... That looks lovely on you, Ann. "Semi-fitted" is certainly an overstatement; it looks much nicer w/ your modifications. 2/4/04 3:37 PM
CatherineN said... I couldn't see any of your pictures. What a disappointment :( 2/4/04 3:54 PM
jlg said... Ann, I can't see them either, and I really want to; was very excited to see that you had reviewed it. 2/4/04 4:07 PM
Ann Smith said... I don't know what's with Yahoo Photos. I think if you wait awhile it will work again. At least that is what happened the other day. Ironically, my pictures stored at Ofoto are coming up fine and it was Ofoto that was giving me so much trouble that I decided to change to Yahoo. Go figure... 2/4/04 5:38 PM

Danvillegirl said... Ann thanks for the review. I agree with you that the look is a little more matronly than I think you are use to. I have seen your other creations that fit to a "t" and look like they are just right for you. I have mixed feelings about some of the jackets from LH. Some work great, others don't. I envy your creative talents, copying is a form of flatteriy and I certainly copy a lot from others on PR. 2/5/04 7:18 AM
Linda E. said... Ann I like the jacket it looks good on you. I was looking thru your photos and saw the Miyake coats have you review them. yours are really interesting. 2/5/04 8:13 PM
