These are both absolutely gorgeous. What a fantastic job. I love the fringe on the one and the piping on the other. It is always amazing to me that the same pattern can look so different in different fabrics and trim. Great job.

Inspiring. (Oh, If I only had more time and energy!) Wonderful job on both, love the stripes. Thanks for the review.

WOW! So many beautiful design elements that you added to make these jackets great. The placement of the fringe was inspired and a unique take on a much used embellishment.

Both your jackets are delightful to behold. The fringe and piping are perfect choices for the fabrics. I love these.

Beautiful, and when I saw the picture I wondered if this was part of your outfit for the wedding in Japan. Your work is so professional and inspiring!

Beautiful job. I love both of the versions. I am going to make that one up!

Your jackets are fantastic. I saw this pattern the other day, the top and skirt caught my eye, but not the jacket. You have changed that!

Fabulous, fabulous, fabulous! While the white is simply stunning, I really like the striped version! I think this pattern is going on the shopping list! -Ann

Ooooh! I love the details in that jacket--and the two totally different looks! Great!

Great jackets. So good to see a positive review of this since I've wanted to try it.

I love your jacket. The fringe detail certainly does make your jacket very chic. Excellent review and inspiring project.

Vonnevo - The others said it all. Fabulous jackets and great review. I had been looking at this pattern, wondering how it would look in real life. Thanks so much - love the striped technique - very cool.

Wonderful jacket and great review. I look forward to more!

Vonne, brilliant work - they are both fantastic, perfect. I love the fringing and piping too. Please, please post a photo of you modelling them - much nicer than seeing them on the dummy.

WOW for both your jackets! I love both of them, and the fringe placement is inspired!

Lovely. I really like this jacket style, and yours are great. I don't think I've seen this pattern before. Great idea on the button loop holder.

What great jackets (actually all the garments on your album were fab!). Now, must go and finish my jacket.......

Both of these jackets are great, great looking. This is very inspiring to me. I don't have this pattern but something similar. Thank you for reviewing this pattern and showing us both.

Great jackets. As Amelie said, the way you used the fringe is an original variation on the current fashions. Is this pattern just recently out here? I don't remember seeing it before.

Kathleen, this pattern won't be available here in Oz until June, according to the Simplicity web site. I wanted it so bad, a friend sent it to me from the US :)))

Terrific! It's wonderful to see the creativity you've put into these jackets!

Gorgeous jackets! Wow, I can hardly believe how beautiful they are, you just don't see details like that very often. If you ever get tired of them, let me know... ;)

WOW! What a gorgeous jacket! The details you added are fabulous! I went through your entire photo album and I'm SO impressed with all your sewing! Very inspirational! I also see what you mean about using a print for the twist top! Even though I'm much larger on top than you, I'll try your suggestion (on my review) and see if a print is more wearable for my body type! Thanks so much for all the "eye candy"!! Fantastic!!

I've been eyeing off this pattern... the jacket you've made is just gorgeous... so crisp and perfect looking!!

Both jackets are gorgeous!! I so hope to have enough time to make myself an outfit for my DD's wedding in two months and I would love to have this jacket. What does a size 42 compare to in the the big 4 range? Thanks for this very helpful review.
