WOW!!! I'm SO incredibly impressed with your jacket! It is quite simply breathtaking- and that pink reflective piping is so subtle and so striking. Seriously-I would pay $250 for a jacket that nice (because if I spent that much on one from a store it wouldn't be that nice). You should quit your job and just become the TE forum members seamstress and clothing designer.

Congrats on finishing your project! Wear that jacket with pride.


Do you have any words of wisdom for making mittens? I want to make my own felted wool/fleece lined mittens because I'm tired of buying cycling specific store bought gloves that don't keep my fingers warm in this cold weather. I made a crudely constructed pair of felted mittens last week and wore a pair of glove liners underneath and they were MUCH warmer than my fancy schmancy cycling lobster gloves.
