The "12 Jackets" Sew Along at SG just got to me. I can't help it. I just had to join in. My first (I think), is McCalls 5711, OOP pattern described in my last post. I have ordered this mustard-yellow wool crepe from GorgeousFabrics. This is called "Winter Sunshine". I love that name. Winter. Sunshine.
After having a very intense Christmas Eve with DH at the ER, and staying home on Christmas Day, taking care of him, I participated in the fabric sale at FabricMart. It soothed me. Calmed down my nerves. The sale is still in effect through today, in case you're need a fabric fix.
I ordered the beautiful border print knit that Carolyn fashioned into a gorgeous outfit. I don't know what mine going to be. Maybe I'll just drape it on a chair and look at it. It's that kind of beautifulness.
Also, ordered this black herringbone wool for another jacket.
I hope to start working on the pattern tomorrow and get a muslin started. This jacket sew along sounds like a lot of fun. See you there!
