it is a very classy jacket---could we have a close up look at the back that shows up the seaming --this will never be out of date ---wear it any where you should be proud i bet it wasnt easy to do

Thanks for your nice comment.....It is not really difficult... I like a challenge,

I just had to take my time, and think about what the instructions wanted me to do, also made a few notes on my pattern so next time, it will be easier. I am going to make another in pastels and white to take on vacation in the summer. notes I wrote on pattern - eg., I drew vertical lines every 1/2" on the cotton to keep my vertical lines straight, and pressed all seams to one side - which was important, pressing each strip before I sewed on the next strip, and put in a zipper rather than buttons.

If you are interested - you can obtain the pattern at:
www.FigureFlatteringQuiltwear.com OR
[email protected]
the pattern is called "Midnight Glacier - Bargello Jacket"

I will attach a pic from the first layout of materials (I laid strips of white paper where I added one strip of material to the next strip, didn't use this piece...hope this gives a little more clarity...Best of Luck
