UPDATE: I submitted this jacket to this week’s Sew Weekly challenge, “Don’t judge a pattern by it’s cover,” because, honestly, I wouldn’t have chosen this pattern for myself based on its cover – but, I love the actual jacket. Here are my facts, à la Sew Weekly.
Fabric: Gray Armani wool from Fine Fabrics, black bamboo/cotton blend for lining from Eddie’s Quilting Bee
Pattern: Very Easy Vogue V8429
Year: 2007
Notions: Three amazing buttons also from Fine Fabrics
Now, back to my original post.
Today my husband and I took photos of me in my new jacket for both BurdaStyle and the PatternReview lined-jacket contest. We forgot to take photos of the lined jacket, so I cropped one of the ones I took for an earlier post. I might break out the camera and take a better photo of the lining today.



And, an action shot!

That is a gorgeous jacket!! Absolutely stunning!
