I wear a lot of black, gray and white and I am trying to add color. Not really successfully I have to admit. I did add red glasses and a red handbag and I've got a red scarf. But actual clothes? Nope, you are much more successful than I.Nancy Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02235347323004026695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2193367862444945572.post-56926349638206458132016-05-23T17:04:54.582-07:002016-05-23T17:04:54.582-07:00Wonderful jacket!

I have to agree with you - all the hand sewing that comes at the end of a project is relaxing work - it also means that the project is very near completion.

Can't imagine the cutaway of the pattern would be nearly so pleasing. As always, your inside, unseen, details and sewing are beautiful. And yes - I enjoy hand sewing, so much that I do my quilting by hand. Takes forever, but I like the effect. <br /><br />And hand sewing is an art - I get really bummed to see some of the whip-stitch type finishing I see on some garments. Why be so rushed!Cocohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13784505178222083364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2193367862444945572.post-36806293668521109312016-05-23T03:48:59.940-07:002016-05-23T03:48:59.940-07:00What a lovely jacket!
