The Verdict

Mama R tried on her newly finished jacket.

She loves it!

(Don't worry, she doesn't plan on wearing it with that dress. I just wanted to snap a photo to show off the fit.)

She said it was just what she hoped for before she handed over some navy satin crepe and asked that I make her another one and a matching dress. And also put in a request for a black dress.  

It looks like Mama R is planning to keep me busy sewing this summer.  


Happy Sewing!
