I thought I was being very conservative LOL! Haven't been able to do anything but tear apart sweatshirts for several days and now I have to bind a baby cover for next weekend. But I'll do my best to get the beading etc onto this. Gosh, then it would be interesting enough to wear to the christening. Maybe I'll forgo the lining and just put the beading on the lined lapel since Mary Ann was saying she liked this jacket in batik rayon. I think the soft drapiness is what I like too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4413756214590426820.post-60463137368926407972009-02-13T18:00:00.000-08:002009-02-13T18:00:00.000-08:00I would never have had the nerve to mix batiks wit...I would never have had the nerve to mix batiks with checks, but the result looks really good!

I have several pat...Yes, I agree with you Mary Ann. I have several patterns from this designer and Indygo Junction but I had to know that I can tweak them to my tastes. Did you read the instructions in the pattern? I want to try their ideas for a textured yoke--what they suggest would be a good starting off point. Hope you try the pattern and send us a photo. cheers, RosalieRosalie Cookehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14532469205838082530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4413756214590426820.post-27706255339999340742009-02-12T17:37:00.000-08:002009-02-12T17:37:00.000-08:00I love this pattern, but would not have bought it ...I love this pattern, but would not have bought it based upon the photographs on the envelope...it was only when I saw it made into a sample of batik rayon that I decided to buy it.
