One of my first advanced projects. The patern is selfmade. interfacing is haircloth/horsehair, handstitched, also the linning. the fabric is actually for curtains but I thought it would be a beautiful jacket

thanks, more and more I like a classic style with an extraordinary touch.

Well… You certainly have achieved that.
Just read one of the other comments. Maybe you need to throw a few dinner parties to showcase your beautiful work. Make your own place to wear it ;)

It was already mentioned, but the perfectly matching pattern is really impressive. I also like the five-button. haven’t seen that in a while.

thanks :-)
the matching pattern isn’t so difficult but you need a little bit more of fabric as usual. I also made two fitting tousers by this jacket.
