In fact, it didn't work in some stretch fabrics.

I just hope it's warm enough. Outside in below 60 (had to look up the conversion :) ) and I'd freeze in only a jean jacket, especially if a cold wind is blowing. Temps are about 60 at the moment here so I can relate.

As usual, you sound like you are well organized. Besides, the sewing preparation should help with the waiting for November to see DS1. BTW, I love the red fabric.

NOT flattering for me either, but I had to give them a try. i haven't found a jeans pattern I love, at least not since an old Delta Burke pattern I had years ago (that is probably mom jeans territory now!) I'm going to try out an Ottobre Woman pattern this fall I think.angie.ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01575366388194033626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20350253.post-10166677215338089552010-09-19T13:56:16.578-04:002010-09-19T13:56:16.578-04:00I love the first jacket you made from this pattern...I love the first jacket you made from this pattern.

Ah, I remember when I used to think the 60's were cold. Folks here in NC laughed at us when we saw our first frozen puddle. I don't think I could ever take Florida again on a long term basis. Unless I "wintered" there January and February. Plus there's that whole "personal climate change" that middle age brings.meredithphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17683287411020125224noreply@blogger.com
