Oh my.. April 1st TODAY! Where does the time go?
Through March I posted about 3 garments I was marking.. but last time you saw them they were all incomplete, and I wasn't entirely sure how 2 of them were going to be finished.
Well, now they are :) and I though I'd show you..
 |
| I used Ghungroo Bells for buttons :) 4 to close the double breasted front and 1 at each cuff. |

I was so happy when a lovely lady contacted me through my shop, saying she had seen this nuno jacket on my blog and asking if I could make one for her.. By lucky chance the one I was working on was a good size for her. It was pretty much sold before it was even finished.. how wonderful!
 |
| I decided to add sleeves to the long Jacobs vest.. now it's a longline jacket :) perfect for Spring and Autumn |
 |
| Goes well with the wellies don't you think :)? |
 |
| I decided to go with branch buttons.. |
 |
| Gary reckons I look really annoyed in this one.. I wasn't, but I have had a cold this week so look a bit crappy. Another branch button here.. must make more next week, I've about used 'em all up! |
 |
| I love this vest :) |
I've decided to keep the jacket and vest myself :) (I couldn't resist.. they're just so ME.. and hey I should be wearing my own felt shouldn't I?!) so I've listed them as Made to Measure on my shop :)

O yes, making a jacket out of the vest was very clever !
It looks very good (on you ;-) ...)
There will be a very happy lady somewhere in America too !
Fabulous Deborah! I really like the jacket you're keeping - it's a great fit too x
The musical jacket is superb! You were right to add sleeves to your jacket - it looks great on you, and adding both items to your 'made to measure' is a good idea.
You made beautiful coats. No wonder soon it's sold. Each and every piece is unique one would love to owe.
Thank you ladies :)
Hope you have a lovely Easter weekend!
