Strips Sewn in
Detail of Rag Strips and Lining
Completed Jacket
For the last week or so on Facebook my friends have seen me post about this jacket that my friend Sandra and I have been making in our quest to challenge ourselves to sew some things a little more difficult. This project has involved a lot of cussing!
First of all, it is a rag jacket so you sew the seams in the opposite way you normally would so it keeps your head messed up thinking about whether you sewed the seam right because it looks so wrong. Then the directions on this particular pattern were not written in the most clear way that it could have been.
And had I not been working on it with Sandra I probably would have thrown it out several times!!! But we didn’t and now…now that it is finally finished we both are very happy with how they turned out.
But I will NOT be doing this one again anytime soon. It will take me some time to get over it! LOL

That’s the prettiest ugly jacket I’ve ever seen. I like it and I’m glad you cussed and stuck with it.
Thanks!
