Pattern Description: cardigan style jackets

Pattern Sizing: 6-22

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? yes

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? I like the jacket length and the bow detail.

Fabric Used: a poly blend suiting

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: I added a full lining of white ambience by cutting all the main pieces from the lining and inserting it before finishing the jacket. This fabric wouldn't have had as much body unlined and I don't think I would have liked it as well.

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? yes & yes

Conclusion: This is a cute jacket that would look good in a number of variations.

Buy this pattern for $14.21  List Price: $18.95   Add to Bag Add to Bag

Great color for you. Interestingly enough, I'm not sure there is any color that doesn't work with your complexion/eye color/hair. But this one is very good.
