I can’t pass up a bargin. This means I have lots of lovely, but small pieces of fabric from remnant bins.
For the grey jacket I bought a vintage button. I stupidly dropped it on the floor while I was sewing and being glass the stem broke off. Luckily I was able to superglue it back on.
I bought this pattern purely because the fabric requirements were minimal for a jacket, but I liked it so much I made it twice.
Flower - cream wool embriodered in silk I think. Grey - wool, vintage glass button.
