Red Curtain said... This jacket is so well constructed and looks totally rtw. Your review is very helpful. I think I'll have to try a Jalie pattern! 2/8/11 6:38 PM
VtMartha said... Great looking jacket! The pattern is now available for download from the Jalie site. I'm looking forward to making one too. 2/8/11 6:49 PM
EleanorSews said... What a beautifully made jacket! The photo tells all. Looks like you have found your TNT denim jacket pattern. 2/8/11 6:54 PM
MNBarb said... Oh yeah! Well worth the time it took to make the muslin. This really is a great pattern and I love your surprise pocket linings. There is just something very satisfying about making a garment with all of the neatly done topstitching and yours is perfect. Congrats on a project very nicely done. Now I'm thinking about corduroy (like yours with a contrast fabric for the indercollar) or a lighterweight version for spring in linen. 2/8/11 7:05 PM
becca a said... This jacket looks totally RTW. This was the first Jalie pattern I bought. I will have to actually sew it up. 2/8/11 7:41 PM

blue mooney said... VERY nice! Love the surprise inside the pocket. Like you say, it looks very RTW. 2/9/11 8:47 PM
cyclegirl said... Leslie--the jalie has the welt pockets, and I like the way the front facing is enclosed in the collar. The fit was so much better for me on the jalie. I'm sure I could have messed more with the KS to get a better fit, but really wanted to try a different pattern. My KS has found a home with my sister, it fits her better, and she was thrilled to get it! 2/9/11 11:45 PM

radollrose said... I was also looking for something other than the Kwik Sew jean jacket. Yours turned out so beautiful, I'm going to have to give it a try. I especially love the detail on the pocket-too cute! 4/10/11 7:45 PM
