Description
I love sewing with linen and even if you have to iron it a lot I just love wearing it :) This jacket was a challenge for me, and I hand stitched the pockets as in the instruction. The buttons is also covered with the same fabric.
The skirt pattern looks easy to sew, but since my instruction was in Spanish, it was not easy at all.. Thanks Curry for helping me out! :) I love this color and I’m so happy with the outcome, so now I’m ready for my trip.. The silk top is from an earlier project.
Material Notes
Linen and polyester lining for the jacket.

Looks fabulous! The jacket and skirt go so well with the blouse you made as well, what a great outfit. I keep looking at the linen whenI go fabric shopping, but have yet to pick some up. I may need to now!

Very nice Ellen, I love that color & like you, I love linen too, it’s supposed to look wrinkled & it is the strongest natural fiber. Have fun in Poland :)

What an amazing jacket….Before Easter I decided not to make because it would be too complicated, wasn’t it?

Oh, thank you so much Elpida! It’s the first time ever I have sewn such sleeves, but I love the peplum of this jacket, and I think linen was a good choice, and I’m sure you will manage very well!
