Japanese Striped Jacket !
I bought a Japanese pattern book when I visited Japan last time,
but unfortunately it has not been used until now because I thought it looked very difficult.
but unfortunately it has not been used until now because I thought it looked very difficult.
At first, it was hard to find the right lines when I was trying to draw the pattern,
but all of a sudden I managed, so I decided to try this jacket pattern.
The back is gathered at the lower mid-part.
I made the pockets with lining.
- and the pockets are stitched to the front parts.
The front and back part are stitched together.
I made a lining for the jacket.
This is the most difficult part, to stitch the collar together.
I also decided to stitch a ribbon arond the collar and the sleeves.
At the end, I stitched a ribbon at the hem as well, like the japanese pattern.
I had to cut away the seam allowance before stitching ribbon around the collar.
I found this nice buttons in my stash that I thought was perferct for the jacket.
The backpartk is decorated with a ribbon as well.
