Made It Myself Monday: This Jacket May Be Too Graphic For Sensitive Viewers

Well, at the beginning of spring I picked up a Burda Magazine and this is the third thing I have made from it's pages. I really had sort of thought the graphic wouldn't look quite this large, translated to clothing, but here you go!




I bought the canvas fabric at Ikea and really tried to stay on top of the designs as I cut. Placing, changing and hoping the shapes would still be nice with the darts and all.
The jacket was pretty easy to make but a little boxy ( So far I have found all their patterns a little on the boxy side...) but I altered it by adding a belt, and curving the front corners at the bottom, to match some of the shapes in the print.


It isn't the jacket I would pick for a wallflower shy day... But I guess I'm not really that type of girl anyhow.

Boldly Going Pretty Much Everywhere,
Betty
