Well Many years ago I bought all these lovely expensive fabrics and took a class to make a Bog Jacket, using a muslin as the stitched in “batting” and then lined it….. I looked like a wrestler in it 🤪. But I was determined to save it…so I bought a dressy jacket pattern and cut the pieces and made up the jacket, and even appliquéd a vine and some 3 D Foxgloves on the front (took a course on them earlier) and lined it with a satiny type fabric….. wore it a few times, but really never “bonded” with it. So this piece is about all that remains of it, as it lives with the blue scraps now and used in lots of quilts! Just thought I’d share a little humour with you. I have made and enjoyed a few different sweatshirt jackets over the years.
