Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
I choose option B and it did look very similar Were the instructions easy to follow?
I did not follow them. this was made in a class. What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
I just love this jacket, no dislikes at all Fabric Used:
Valentino Boucle and Valentino silk Charmeuse Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:
This was made in a Susan Khalje class, which was incredible, and highly recommended! so the pattern was made to couture standards and adjusted through out the process. Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?
Absolutely, back in Baltimore again in March '13 to do it all again.
Conclusion:
Love this jacket, love the fit, and highly recommend to anyone with some experience. more pics here....www.achallengingsew.typepad.com
Thanks!!
