So I am working on a jacket for Megan. She needed office wear. Normally I am opposed to making jackets but I did it anyways. What don’t I like? SLEEVES. I used to cheat and leave the side seams open while I set in the sleeves but today I decided to do it the right…
At the FirstSamples moving sale I happened to find a pattern for a Cocoon jacket. My mom had a pattern like this ages ago and I thought, “who would wear it?”“ Now I want it. Apparently they have been resurrected from the 80s. Stay tuned for this blast from the past…
So Tina sent me an email alerting me to FREE patterns online. Granted you will have to dig around for them, but I promise that they are there. My fall project (after I get the stuff for the show done) will be this Alexander McQueen Jacket. It’s a mini kimono with vest-like attributes.
