Moi, ja kiitos! Osittain kaava on juuri siitä, mutta olen hieman muokannut etu- ja takaosaa sekä hihat on tehty ihan omalla kaavalla. Mutta idea lähti kyllä juuri siitä bolerosta, jos nyt vaan puhutaan samasta :)

Gorgeous bolero! I really like the front part, with the buttons. Waiting for a pattern so I can make one my self if I have the permission? :) Fan-freaking-tastic work! :)

Wow, this is gorgeous! Please do some larger sizes when you add the pattern!!

Oh dear, as a beginner I have to put my hands up and tell you that I propably don’t know how to make larger sizes :( If the pattern would help you a little and you could change it to fit you? I’m sorry for my lack of talent :)

Try Ikea for red and white striped fabric, Medea! I saw some on their website, they may have one near where you live!
Nov 24, 2009, 02.34 PMby haniini55
I feel completely flattered! Thank you guys for the comments, I promise to add the patterns later! (as soon as I get the chance to draw them and change them a bit, to make them perfect)

can’t wait, I love your creation <3
btw, where did you get this awesome fabric? I’m searching for a proper red white striped one for ages!
Nov 24, 2009, 03.31 PMby haniini55
Found it from a finnish fabric shop, Eurokangas. I guess it doesn’t help you? :)

Nothing Fancy, you say. I think it transformed a white tshirt and jeans into a super cool outfit. I love it. I am too reminded of candy cane but without the calories.
Nov 24, 2009, 11.54 AMby candyjoyce
This looks really cool. Thanks for giving me yet another thing to add to my “things-i-want-to-make” list :)

This is really great work, it would be soo great if you could make a pattern!
Nov 24, 2009, 08.28 AMby cezi
Great! Did you use any material to strengthen the upper part?

I only used adhesive tape (? a one you glue on to using an iron) on the seams at the front but nothing more. :)

I really like this! Great job!
Nov 23, 2009, 11.55 PMby lenarrrd
Stunning! Jealous of your skills – might have to try and figure out how to make one myself :) x

Nov 23, 2009, 10.37 PMby tasallison
gorgeous shape and fabric…the print is very striking…but paired with this style, it has just the right amount of gorgeous intensity to make it work…tis would be lovely over a little cream lace dress or something!!
well done!:-)

I mixed and matched, made the sleeves pattern myself and took the front and the back from a readymade pattern :)
Nov 23, 2009, 08.05 PMby frkbustad
Oh! Gorgeous! I love it! Is it a pattern you’ve made yourself? Jersey cotton or without stretch? The long sleeves are really cool.

Oh dear, as a beginner I don’t know what is jersey cotton… but I can tell you that much that it had a little bit of stretch. (enough for the edges to curl and make me insane :)
