I managed to finish the jackets for Grace and Milly last night. I am quite happy with how they turned out as I didn't use a pattern and had a few problems fitting the sleeve to the body. The hood is a bit pointier than I thought it would be, but it stays on.
I think it would have been better if I didn't tell them to smile for the camera.
Nice job! Beautiful jackets!
ReplyDeleteThe jackets are lovely (the girls are too!)...you are so clever- thanks for all the inspiration from your blog!!!
ReplyDeleteLove the jackets - pointy hoods and all!
ReplyDeleteMilly and Grace look so cute in their new jackets - perfect for this freezing weather!
ReplyDeleteThese jackets are beautiful. Your girls look good in them.
ReplyDeleteyou are a quick sewer! Lovely jackets!
ReplyDeleteGosh those are so cute. And the kidlets are soooo sweet in them. Quite frankly, that pattern of jacket done in a beatiful black fabric would be perfect for an adult. Especially if you found an amazing horn button.
ReplyDeleteYou are an amazing person!
ReplyDeleteDid you really ask them to smile? Looks like you told them a scary story! The jackets are wonderful!(and the girls were probably playing opposites with you - you just didn't know!)
ReplyDeleteThe jackets look great. I like the binding. What cute girls you have!

ReplyDeleteThese are fantastic! I love them. The girls look cute!
ReplyDeletegreat coats. well done!!
ReplyDeleteoh my goodness how adorable.
ReplyDeleteThe jackets are beautiful! They look adorable in their new jackets :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a brilliantly gifted mum Grace, Milly and Eva have! The coats are great. I just got back from our annual trip home to OZ-Syd,Perth & Brisbane (jet lag anyone?) and finally saw my sis using your bag in person (she loves it). My twin girls are 28mths and I look to you for inspiration.... I still think it will be some time before I can sew in the same room as they are. I have some twin questions... how do your girls handle the issue of whose clothing is whose? Do they have colour preferences...how do you go about deciding who wears what? Do you always make two of a kind?

wow they look terrific! I love them, so cute with the hoods and borders.
ReplyDeleteYou just haven't trained our next Australian Models very well Kate. We need smiles on queue.
ReplyDeleteThe jackets look great.
Jackets look great Kate! I bought a Bias Binding tool the other day.. Hope they are easy to use....
ReplyDeleteYour girls are darling, as are the smiffy new jackets! You did a beautiful job...love them!

these are so sweet! (the girls and the jackets!). what pattern did you use? i remember you using a lot of ottobre patterns, was it one of theirs?
ReplyDeletealso, have you ever tried the ottobre women's clothing, or just the children's? i've been curious about their adult patterns. thanks!
These are so adorable! I want one for me to wear, and I'm 24. ^ ^
