What an awesome jacket. It's beautiful. Thank you for sharing the name of the designer as I have been looking for a pattern similar to that one. Did the pattern sizes run larger than regular pattern sizes? Like would a large really be a large or was it more like an extra large?

I looked up Ami Simms' jacket pattern on line and looking at the photos, it appears that she may have more than one style of jacket patterns. Is the name of the pattern you use her Rag Fur Jacket?

I also have that pattern and after seeing yours, I just might get up the courage to try it. Looks like you did a great job!

Yes, that's the one. It was really fun to make!
