I love the green color. Nice job.

Thank you. I just loved the fabric from the moment I saw it, but brocade is a bit of a pain to work with.

Oh yes it is but you prevailed. ;-)

Thank you. I remember my dad making me practice tying my shoes five times a night until I learned how. Perhaps a similar exercise for him?

Very nice!

Sometimes the bottom or top pulls together just a bit - it's not the end of the world. The hip doesn't look like it's digging in, so I wouldn't worry too much.
