I'd like one in my size....

I have wanted to make this jacket since we received the pattern in the shop. I asked Jessica to send me this fabric since it's not one I can get. The facings are done with Mendicino by Heather Ross. I think it's a nice little surprise. The pattern was fairly easy to follow. There are a couple of things I might do differently next time. Minor stuff.
All in all I like the way it looks. Now I just need a model. Size 4.

Oh it turned out DARLING! I won't be offering up my size 4 model, for obvious reasons. :)

um...I know a size 4 model...she's 3.5 years old. you may know her...size 4 could be too big for her but we'll never know till we try it. Not to have but just to model for you..I'm just saying..

it's stinkn cute!!! holy cow! I can't wait to see it in person. you have to hang this in the store even though we don't sell the fabric. the pattern might sell now if people see it made. I'll bring a pretty hanger:) I have to make mine now but I don't think I can top this..too darn cute!! I thought the whole thing was lined though..no?
