Photos from the Jacket's Creation

[spykitten]

Because I like seeing how things are made (I still have fond memories of touring the bread factory as a Brownie Scout), I thought it would be fun to share a few photos of the jacket-in-progress. In no particular order, these are a couple of details as I went along.

I fail to see why you would spend time trying to re-create that.

Wow, that's rude.

Looked better when I saw the finished product.

Very rude.

I think the jacket's awesome.

hey honey, it looks really great. i admire your tenacity and courage in taking on something as insane as a galliano. all your stitching looks really good - that stuff must have been a bitch to sew on. i say, wear it everywhere all the time! :)

Thanks! Several of my friends (who have been waiting impatiently for me to finish) saw the finished jacket and said, "Now we have to plan a big night out so you can show it off!" ;)

[spykitten]

where on that website did you find the pattern.
I couldn't find it when I went looking..
it's probably just under my nose.

p.s. love the jacket it's fabulous-o.

It's in the "Projects" section I believe...the website isn't very well organized and they keep rearranging things, so you have to search around a bit. Think of it as a treasure hunt. ;)

Holy crap. You're amazing.
I've been lurking your thread on craftster and it's been scaring me since god knows when.
but wowahsdjhfsdkjhfsda

Thanks! Sewing this jacket was pretty scary at times, what with all the leaps of faith that these random shapes would turn into an actual garment at the end. :)
