Made By Me: Blue jacket

New jacket. Blue Jacket. Vintage pattern, number 2 jacket. Another challenging project. Getting the right fit and getting everything to lay right is the hard part. I also added a small collar which was not in the pattern. I don't "love" it. It's alright. It's my own fault for making two light-weight, unlined jackets (a gray one from a few months ago). I think if I line them and use a heavier fabric, I'll have better results. Jackets need some weight.  But will I wear it? It's so warm out here in SoCal; I like to keep the fabrics light...
I have one more jacket project lined up... I'll keep you posted...
Have a great weekend.
Happy styling.


Vintage buttons - i LOVE them. I made a ring to match. :)
