Pattern Description: Semi-fitted jackets A, B, C, D are tunic length at back with raglan sleeves in short or three-quarter length, stitched, shaped hem draping shorter in front. B, C, D: patch pockets. C: collar. D: collar and lapel

Pattern Sizing: BB: 8-14

Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it? yes (better I think ;)

Were the instructions easy to follow? yes

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? the collar styling and general drape and how the hem dipped down in back

Fabric Used: a Velveteen-ish fabric I got on clearance somewhere. I suspect it might be for home dec! I actually used it as a muslin--but ended up wearing it quite a bit through the holidays! The drape & color were great, I though

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: none

Would you sew it again? yes--would like to make it in different fabric and maybe in the vest view. Maybe denim & leather? Would you recommend it to others? yes

Conclusion: It's been a great cover up as well as a stand alone (with something under of course!
