My attempt at Idit – first time using really stretchy jersey and fitting sleeves! I’m pretty happy with how it’s turned out but it’s too short and they fabric is a bit too garish! You think I’d have noticed that before I started…. Going to have another go at this using black jersey and lengthen the pattern.

Looks good – you’ve done a great job. I can see this worn with black pants/skirt and black skivvie. Love the retro fabric!
