Jacket

Pattern Sizing:
12

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?
Quite, except for the sleeves of the dress (because of the changes I made) - the jacket is very easy to sew

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
I liked the raised waist of the Dress

Fabric Used:
A heavier Woolen and a Lightweight Woolen for the contrast (which I embroidered for the Jacket)

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:
I added an extra contrasting stripe on both sides of the dress

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?
Absolutely!

Conclusion:
I like this pattern, I think it's quite 'chic', isn't it?
