I have bought this material a while ago but only got round to doing something with it now. Decided on a pattern I’ve used before because I figured it would be quick and easy. Only I got the size for the sleeve all mixed up, plus I used some stretchy material before, so I had to redo the sleeves. Luckily there was enough fabric left :-)) pattern I used was no. 120/08/2011

Thank you ! And yes, this was a proper bargain ! We only have one fabric shop in town and small as it is, she always manages to get some interesting stuff at reasonable prices ! Wouldn’t mind a little trip to shepherds bush though :-)))

I too love the fabric. And to think I only saw it on my way out. They had put it in their “remnants basket” and it was only £ 8,— ! Great jacket for that price, isn’t it?? Anyway, thanks for the compliment :-)
