Week 3 - What a bust! Moving to Week 4

Well, Here in TX there was super snow storm. My family decided to hang around the house instead of braving the streets.

My sewing mojo was nonexistent. I tried to complete a quilt, I didn't get the result I wanted. So I tried to make this cute jacket it totally bombed.  I am really bummed. The jacket was too short and tight in the shoulders.  I am going to do the remake this week.

I know I was supposed to make the silk shirt but there was a snag, I didn't have enough fabric to make bias cut strips, I tried piecing them together on the polyester prototype. I didn't like the results. SO, I moved on to this jacket (Burda 2/2001 108 A).   

But I am a large women for this patter so I up sized it the pattern with mixed results. I still like that jacket, I am going to make some adjustments to the pattern I made and sew it again on the cotton satin to match a skirt that I have. It will look really cute. We shall see how it goes!
