I've been not only trying to mostly make things from my stash lately, but also finish some of the things that have been sitting in my UFO boxes for a very long time, and having finally completed this garment is a very good feeling, even though I'm sure it started out as a jacket with buttons and buttonholes down the front, since I've unfortunately grown quite a bit in size over the years.
I've also forgotten what fabric I used for this jacket, but am afraid it has quite a bit of polyester in it since it doesn't wrinkle at all and smells when I iron it, but it's a bit linen like so something I might actually wear, esp since it's a color that I planned to use as the "accent" for the neutral 6 pac wardrobe of browns and grays that I am going to make for the online Artisan's Square autumn challenge. One down, five to go...
