Gorgeous day jacket. Have you sewn a contrasting cuff, or are the cuffs folded back to expose the lining? Looks great either way :)

The cuffs are folded back.
Only the lower part of the sleeve has striped fabric.

I used the smallest size of the pattern (36).
I need size 34. So i had to retouch some seams.
Now that it is finished, I regret that there is no split in the back.
Generally it’s great.

het is niet helemaal perfect ze, aan mijn rechterarm kan je zien dat een beetje wegtrekt. ik snap niet helemaal hoe dat komt, maar ik kan het wel oplossen door die voering een beetje vast te zetten aan die zakken denk. Maar het ziet er wel al goed uit.
Het zal waarschijnlijk in mijn kast gaan tot aan de zomer.

It is perfect. I love the striped lining showing. Will be a very handy jacket.

I thought it was important to use a stretch frabric for this kind of jacket. The striped fabric is a very light cotton. In the rest of the sleeve I used a stretch lining, so my arm slides in easy.

Gorgeous! The fit and the colour choice is just the perfection!
