It was a large piece of batik fabric I had and it wasnīt suitable for the quilt I was making so it came in handy after all.

So glad to see a post with your glorious jacket. Now I want to see it being modeled by the maker! Looks scrumptuous!

Thanks Shemjo, will try to get one for you soon. Will take it to my sewing club but it will be next week before I can go, so patience is required.

Very pretty jacket. The oriental prints give it a very special elegant look.

I used the basis of a Tutorial on this board. Go to Tutorials and search Jackets. I followed the excellent one by Terri.

You can line them or not. I didnīt with this one but probably the next one I make I will.

Many thanks for info!! :thumbup: Oh well....another on the 'ToDo' list!!!! :roll: :lol:

Hilary you will find this really easy and quick to do using a large piece of fabric to cover the sweat shirt first and then use any type of appliques to add a bit a pzazz
