Very nice !!! Some people can't help it, they just HAVE class. I love the fabric and again the versitility of the pattern. I love that Butterick allows for comments and reviews.
Awesome suit. I'm so proud of you, you did pants in a big way, zipper, waistband the whole nine yards. Now I bet you wondering what you were so afraid of. Did you use a pattern for the vest you're wearing in the picture on your blog.
Thank you. Of course, it couldn't have been done without all of your encouragement and inspriation.
So, as the saying goes the headache was worth it in the end. I would love to do another one incorporating more techniques, especially for the jacket. I would like to try my hand at doing a back stay and pockets.
@ Tanya - Yes, I did the vest using a pattern from Knit simple called the sleeveless top.
Actually, I'm working on another one for my daughter. Finally, I'm nearing the finishing line, b/c this project has been on needles far too long...lol
