This is a great pattern! I used vintage wool and lined it with some green acetate that was lying around my mom’s house. The pattern went together beautifully, with no problems. I hemmed it with a piece of scrap black silk, because the wool is too thick to turn up. It would have ruined the beautiful pleats.

This is a beautiful pattern, I hope I can size it up to a 16/18. I wish there were more “larger” sizes on here.

It turned out so good, too bad it’s big. Neat job, I really like it. Well, I guess you can always rescale the pattern to fit your size and make another one.
