I rather like this. When you wear it, it feels like a comfy jacket that is not flapping around. It is made from a kind of linen suiting fabric (free from house clearance - thanks Caroline!)
It is hard to show the colour but I would say it is between the two greens. It needs a final pressing with some steam but my iron is all sticky from interfacing and needs a good scrape! It is on my to do list along with hoover, mop the floor, clean the bathroom and all that other dull stuff!
The pattern is here, it was view 3.
I'm wearing it for work tomorrow. Tres chic I think.
What do you think?

I think it's very smart, everyone at work will want you to make one for them. :)
ReplyDeleteIt looks smart & comfortable.
ReplyDeleteThat's really cute! I'm not sure I would have considered it from the pattern but I sure would after seeing the one you made. It does look comfy and very chic! Enjoy! :-D
ReplyDeleteIt came out really nice! I love the shaping with the bust darts and waist, it looks very tailored and stylish.
ReplyDeleteIt is so pretty! Very chic indeed! xx
ReplyDeleteVery chic indeed. I love clothes that you can forget about when you wear, that don't itch or ride up or slip down. I seem to be forever yanking my jeans up. Stylish clothes that are comfortable are the best thing ever. x
ReplyDeleteLovely, it is so tailored and beautiful.
