A casual suit I made my husband for our elopement. It was my first time to make either pants or a jacket! I’m not sure what the fabric is, but it’s very soft, and my husband says it’s as comfortable as pajamas. I had some difficulties with this project, and it’s certainly not perfect, but at least it’s finished!
Mystery sale fabric (I got 6 yards for under $25!)
