Sounds like an excellent reason for me to finally go ahead and buy a serger :wink:

Well, by the friend's smile, she was thrilled with her birthday gift. Yes, granddaughter's is adorable, as I'm sure as adorable as the one who wears it.

There's nothing ugly about this
|
What a nice job! I really enjoy making jackets as I run out of places for quilts, wall-hangings, etc. but can always use another jacket. I also vote for a tutorial.

Tutorial please! I am anal unless I see pics of progress and get the pic in my pee brain. I need one of these as do my 2 DS' and friend.
Your projects are beautiful. |
Is this your creation? It seems as if you satin stitched each piece of fabric. Did you use a sweatshirt? For a weekend project you are amazing.
|
Very nice and the earth tone fabrics are beautiful.
|
What a wonderful daughter in law you are. It's beautiful!
|
Beautiful jacket! Love the colors. Maybe when you do the blue one you could do a little tute for us. For us more visual people. We are all begging nicely!

Hey, Quilting Addict, you're right that most things only look good on a size 12. But that's never stopped me from wearing them. Size 12 - that's a long time ago!
|
Oh my gosh - only a weekend. That jacket is gorgeous and if someone doesn't like it, just let me know.
Dodee |
Love the jacket. Nice, rich looking fabrics.
|

I love this jacket. The browns are great.
