Description

I’m so proud of this!:D It’s my first, so serious work, and I learned a lot! Firstly it was an old, 80s style jacket, half-tight lenghtened, with awful ‘pillows’ on the arms… but I see in it a source of good vest:D And with my great grandmum, who is professional sewer, I altered jacket into this. The worst thing for me was finishing the amr holes-I’ve never done it before, and I don’t know what for it bias tapee…NOW I KNOW:D and in the picture you may notice brown thread instead of black… cause during the sewing on the serger black ended and the only solution was to take brown one

Material Notes

old jacket, black bias tape, and lot of work
