oh, that’s one awesome jacket! no wonder she loves it, i would’ve loved one myself too! :D great job as always, and i love the colour combination!
PS. do African wax fabrics become softer after we wash them? i’ve been dying to try making clothes out of them, but they’re usually so stiff, so i can’t help but wonder if they’d work for clothes. would love to hear your advice on this. :)

thanks sax! the fabric does have some stiffness but it does get a bit softer after its washed.It works great for several types of garments. you should definitely give it a go! i’ve done a skirt in this same fabric will post some pics soon
