This is the second creation for the year in my journey for the RTW fast. This is an outfit made from some lovely coloured knit fabrics. I lined the patterned fabric with a lovely teal lightweight jersey. So it is incredibly comfortable to wear . The top was self-drafted from a favourite top I own and the jacket and skirt were made from the pattern without alterations. I had cut this outfit out last year and it had been waiting to be bought to life for a while before the impetus of the challenge of the RTW fast made me make time to get it done.
Although I am happy with the outfit I have not yet worn the jacket as it feels itchy so I think I may have to line it also in retrospect I think it looks a little bit too big for my body being vertically challenged as I am .
I think I will have to alter it as I line it.
I will post the results when its done.
Happy sewing,
Sue
