All I can say is: That's impressive!

Some liberating tips regarding leather and I love your vision. The skirt is much better than the jackets it is derived from.

Great review. Love what you did with the skirt.
1/14/10 11:41 PM
Wow! You did a great job!
1/14/10 11:54 PM
Impressive is exactly what I was going to say! You did an amazing job sewing this but just coming up with the idea is truly amazing!

Absolutely brilliant. I admire your tenacity at tackling this kind of project! Leather isn't the easiest to work with, but just look at those results. Have fun wearing!

Fantastic job! That skirt rocks. Your review is a GREAT read, too.

Fantastic!

I'm slightly in shock....WOW!!!
1/15/10 8:12 AM
What a great remake. Simply wonderful.

Amazing refashioning project! Not only did you choose a most stylish skirt design, you also whipped that leather into submission and achieved a gorgeously draped garment. Pat yourself on the back!
1/15/10 9:41 AM
What a lot of work you put into this. Great descriptive review and a really fabulous skirt.
1/15/10 1:53 PM
WOWOWOWOWOWOW!
1/15/10 2:53 PM
This is impressive! I bet it will be fun to wear too.
1/15/10 4:21 PM
Fantastic skirt!
1/15/10 5:01 PM
Brilliant! I have an old leather coat in my closet that is 80's dated and too big for me now and a pair of leather pants. You have inspired me to finally use them. I love it and thanks for a terrific write up of your process.
1/15/10 6:18 PM
This is a completely amazing skirt, let alone you made from old coats.
1/15/10 6:26 PM
An amazing vision to transform these jackets this way and an inspirational review. Just astounding what you have done.
1/16/10 1:02 PM
A super review. What a fabulous skirt. Isn't it great to get something wonderful from cast-offs. You did a tremendous job!
1/17/10 3:45 PM
I am impressed! Nice work!!!
1/17/10 7:34 PM
Oh wow. Wonderful skirt and very, very helpful review. You did an awesome job of this. It was clearly a labour of love and I will look forward to seeing what you make with the teal skins.
1/18/10 6:12 AM
amazing skirt! love your wonderful descriptions of how you made this.
1/18/10 5:47 PM
An amazing example of "refashioning". How exciting! I can't wait to hear about your next project.
1/20/10 8:21 AM
Love it. I know what you mean about the ripping leather though! I find that adds to the macho feeling though. Great job!
1/20/10 8:23 PM
Bravo...I am so impressed. What machine or machines did you use on this project?
1/25/10 7:08 PM
Wow, thank you all for the really nice comments :-) Cannmal--I used my Pfaff 2170 and it sewed through the leather like 'buttah' even though I was using a Jeans needle instead of a leather needle.
1/26/10 11:04 AM
That skirt is the bomb! It looks wonderful!! Kudos to you.
2/9/10 12:33 PM
I, too, am completely impressed by your refashioning skills. This is a great skirt - totally unexpected and unique, as you were aiming for. Thanks for the informative review. P.S. Congrats on the contest win!
2/9/10 2:02 PM
I've been collecting sample leathers for some time. Your project was enormous!!! Great going, as I know it is very tedious when revamping a pattern, none the less sewing is the final move when holes are made. Thank You !! Great Job.......
2/10/10 7:55 AM
Wow, what a beautiful job. I really like the back. Looks like a slimming pattern for those of us who have more "junk in the trunk" than I'd like!
2/10/10 8:13 AM
great job. Love the finished project. On washing leather did you just put it in the washer and dryer?
2/10/10 8:29 AM
Wowie Kazowie! Hats off to you for an amazing project. I saw the pattern envelope and I don't think I'd have ever imagined that design made up in leather.
2/10/10 9:58 AM
Great idea, love the skirt...Who knew you could wash and dry leather! Thanks for that tip, too.
2/10/10 10:12 AM
I enjoyed reading about your challenging sewing. I do admire the fact that you would rip apart leather. I've done it several times and have encountered all the problems that you have stated. You did a fantastic job with all the piecing. Congratulations on having a project turn out so professionally.
2/10/10 11:23 AM
Awesome skirt, great review
2/10/10 11:50 AM
Awesome skirt, great review

I am constantly amazed at the skill and imagination of the members. I wish I'd read all these reviews years ago when I was afraid to step outside the box at all! My congratulations to Heidi for her wonderful results and for the very informative review.
2/10/10 4:06 PM
Outstanding! What a spectacular transformation.
2/10/10 5:47 PM
wow that is just too cool... you did a great job ,,
2/10/10 8:25 PM
What an excellent and detailed review. Loved learning about your experience in working with leather.
2/11/10 2:30 AM
Thank you for the great info here. I had purchased a piece of blue leather a long time ago, and now I think I will go ahead and experiment thanks to your encouragement.
2/11/10 10:02 AM
Brilliante!!! I agree with Ann Smith, your vision is amazing. Repurposing the zippered parts was just so clever!
2/11/10 1:35 PM
You have inspired me to work on my leather deconstruction project!
2/12/10 4:41 PM
So impressive! Your skirt is gorgeous!!
