Description

The moment I saw this jacket I wanted one! I did it together with my mom, because she has a lot of experience with sewing and this was my first attempt in sewing and I was afraid I'll ruin it :D The sleeves could've been a little bit longer (next time I'll lenghten the pattern) and the arm wholes are a little bit too big I think, because we cut out size 40 (which should've been the right size after measuring), but had to take away a lot of fabric. But I'm totally confident with it and have to thank my mom a lot, alone it would have been a lot more difficult. I love this jacket and my matching Alexis skirt :)

Materials

wool plaid

    Both the jacket and the skirt are really great, and they look even better together. Well done!

    altering and repairing

    Thanks at all for your nice comments :)

    peaudane: There I have to say thanks again to my mom, she knows the way to sew jackets, so we didn't need the instructions.
