This jacket I made from the batch of thing I got for .50 cents, the garment was a jacket and dress, the top of the dress was a solid yellow linen but had a lot of wear so I did not use it, just the skirt and sleeves with the jacket back, the front had been bound in the solid yellow so it made it extra small, never the less because I am small person I was able to get me a jacket from it. I had to design the jacket to fit the amount of fabric I had, the sleeves are open down the middle with button pearls ever so often to make then partly closed. the front has pearl buttons with loops eyes.

You are a Master seamstress. This is gorgeous.

thank you , I was not really that hard for me , a little careful planning and design on my part to get all the pieces on the amount of fabric I had.

Wow! Jenne, your creativity is superb! I love how you make something out of nothing and kudos to you for all the work that has to go into resewing it into something else. Great work, love Chris

Wish you where in my area , I love teaching people how to make a garment they can be proud of.

Me too, but I think Australia is a bit far for me to travel from for lessons, but I love the kind thought.

Who taught you so much about sewing? (Or maybe it was you.) This is darling.
