Finished jacket |
My word for 2023 is "Organize" and one of my "23 for 23" list of items is make a sewing project list. I wrote 17 items on my list concentrating on the pile of fabric I had laying on my counter in my sewing room. Then I went into my stash of maybe projects and came up with the seventeen items I want to sew this year. Two of those projects are from 2021 and five of them are the grandkids birthday t-shirts. That left me with ten more projects to be able to add to my list.
Pattern used |
I wanted to get a quick start on my list so I chose this easy jacket. I have made this several times so I didn't need to worry about fitting. The fabric was a piece I had gotten from a friend when she was cleaning out her stash.
Button choices |
When it came time to choose buttons, I went into my stash and pulled several possibilities. I then asked on Facebook for opinions. I decided that I was probably going to wear this with jeans as I don't dress up much so I opted for a plainer button.
Final decision |
This jacket goes together quickly and the instructions are easy to follow. I even had shoulder pads in my stash to complete it. Just waiting now for the right time to wear it.
