I found two Chanel-style jackets at the thrift shop yesterday for under $6.00 USD each, plus I had a 25% off coupon. Both are Jones of New York. One does not fit, my favorite of course, in a tweed in shades of blues and greens. The other is a soft pink and cream tightly woven tweed edged in a soft, light tan suede \. That one fits but I am going to see if the tailor will nip in the sides for me so it is not so boxy. (I hate alterations and would rather start all over). I am hoping to make this dress up to go with each of them.Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11926160625275737447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2924463228706507667.post-37905685411629940122010-09-29T11:10:50.244+10:002010-09-29T11:10:50.244+10:00Simplicity 2648.

I have nearly finished my own version of view C, after abandoning the project for 2 months (facings and beginners are a bad idea). It is an awesome dress, but next time I do it I'll wait until I have a clue about sewing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2924463228706507667.post-70094015900748742192010-06-07T20:47:37.180+10:002010-06-07T20:47:37.180+10:00Just a quick note to say the weekend was enhanced ...Just a quick note to say the weekend was enhanced as Terry cooked for us all weekend.
