There is a section featuring customer projects.<br /><br />Looking at the pictures of your project, I noticed you did quite a bit of work on the pattern preparation....I missed that stage somehow. Did you fold in extra fabric in the back of the lining? Centre back looks like you did, as one would do for a tailored jacket.<br /><br />You definitely must make this again, while the process is still fresh in your mind....no, really!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20350253.post-68140511142150884442007-02-05T19:08:00.000-05:002007-02-05T19:08:00.000-05:00Wowieee, I missed this installation, my internet w...Wowieee, I missed this installation, my internet was down...since mid-last week...(what a description?)<br /><br />The jacket is fantastic and I am going to make one tooooo!!!
