Not a quilt project, but I wanted a fall jacket and found a kwik sew pattern! I’m just waiting for the buttons to be delivered.

Nice jacket. Congratulations on the great job of matching the plaid! Most people that don't sew clothing have no idea how difficult that is, especially with a large one-way plaid like yours.

I am guessing that it might have taken as long or longer to cut the jacket out than to sew it. haha

Great job, even ready made doesn't always get it correct, but yours is spot on!

Oh, wow, what a nice job! Plaid matched even across to the sleeves!

Many, many years ago, I did a lot of garment sewing. Now, when I think about doing it again, I feel totally inadequate. Quilting is easier, I think!
