Here are photos of the Donna Karan jacket, Vogue 1263. Did I mention how much I love this pattern?
I really do like the look of the flat fell seams and the darts at the lower hemline. I made it in a size medium and it is quite roomy. I could easily wear it with a belt.
Okay, here are pictures with me wearing the jacket. This first picture is of me waiting for the 10 seconds on my self-timer to go off on my camera.
And this second look is the wait, I'm not ready look!

Your jacket is so pretty. I love the color and it looks stylish as well as warm and comfortable to wear.
ReplyDeleteLOL! I love your pictures! I too understand the joys of timer pictures. My favourite recent one was being caught mid-spin trying to race and turn in front of the camera in time. :)
ReplyDeleteThe jacket is lovely. The seams look really good, especially on that weight of fabric! The whole thing looks super cozy too, which is a huge bonus. Nice job!
I have this pattern, but haven't managed to do anything with it. Your version in boiled wool is very inspiring! Just lovely.
ReplyDeleteGreat to see the finished version - I love it!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful jacket. You've done an amazing job!
ReplyDeleteThe shawl collar is so lovely, and the color of fabric is just fantastic!! Well done!!
ReplyDeleteThank you for all your lovely comments. I can't take too much credit, the instructions were perfect and it really is an easy project to put together despite that undersleeve flat fell seam.
