Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
Yes!!
Were the instructions easy to follow?
Very!
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
nothing really...
Fabric Used:
Textured leather from Mood NY and some crepe de chine silk for lining from my stash.
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:
I just shortetened it (I'm only 5'3) and replaced the invisible zipper by an exposed metal zipper from Pacific Trimming here in NY.
Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?
I keep thinking that I want one in a lighter color for spring (hmm creamy nude leather...) but since I may be moving out of NY to more tropical climate I'm hesitating.
Conclusion:
I looooved everything about this pattern, especially how quickly it came together. More details and pictures on my blog: SewingTidbits!
