Vogue 8709.... finally done...

A quick trip to Fabricland for a new set of buttons to finish off Vogue 8709 and it is done.

This Marcy Tilton's Designer Original, will go down as one of my favourite patterns to sew!

I enjoyed the tips and new techniques included in the pattern instructions.  Although, I didn't use the staystitch plus technique for easing the sleeves I am intrigued enough to try it out on a later garment.

I would recommend this pattern without hesitation and look forward to sewing it again.  For certain this pattern gets a 3/3 spools and thread rating!
