to completing my copy cat jacket. Yesterday I received the black and white silk charmeuse lining and the white silk for the pocket and cuff trim. This was another purchase from Denver fabrics with which I was very pleased. Today I cut out and sewed the lining and made the pockets. I have also decided that I am going to make the white cuffs removable so I can wash it when necessary and not have to take the jacket to the cleaner every time the cuff is dirty. About 2:30 I took a break and went to the mailbox and discovered that my buttons from Britex had arrived. Perfect timing! I was at the point that I needed the buttons before I could go to the next step. I would like to think that i can finish this project up tomorrow. i am starting to run out of time before our trip next month. And of course I must finish this jacket to take with me because I don't have a thing to wear!

Your jacket is looking terrific. Love the lining! I'm looking forward to seeing the finished garment.
It's a good idea to make it detachable cuffs, I love the fabric for lining
The jacket is looking really lovely! I love that lining against the deep blue - so pretty.
I can't IMAGINE you without a thing to wear! Love the fabric combo. You will be stunning in this one. K Q:-)
