I can never get enough detail, and since this is a refashion AND a Chanel inspired piece it's doubly fascinating.

I think you are doing a great job working out how to re-fashion that jacket.

I find refashioning always to be harder than I think it should be...turns out that there is not so much fabric difference between oversized and fitting nicely. I chuckled when I heard about those non-functioning details...little-miss-no-fake-welts! I have made a pair of pants that I am hardly game to post about, because they have fake pocket flaps...I just keep thinking...what would Mary Nanna think?katherine hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17314030133556269765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3461709881987109797.post-72207468022066917922009-08-06T16:12:47.481+12:002009-08-06T16:12:47.481+12:00I'd say that is an amazing amount of progress....I'd say that is an amazing amount of progress. I'm feeling all kinds of inspired from a Chanel bio I'm reading right now, and so far she does seem stick insect-like. Hard to know for sure with those shapeless clothes (I'm still in the 1920's). <br /><br />I think I have decided on my pattern and it's a Simplicity Project Runway pattern. Certainly not what Coco Chanel had in mind, but hey, it's a close match to my inspiration jacket.<br /><br />Yours in keeping it real,<br />AntoinetteAntoinettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09398754886656482414noreply@blogger.com
