A jacket with no embroidery! This began as a chenille throw and I just managed to fit all of the pattern pieces for this jacket onto it. It doesn't show up that clearly but it has braided frog fastenings.

This is lovely Sue. I enlarged your picture to see the frog fastenings better. I have to ask (nosy me) - did you line the jacket?? Dressmaking is my real love, especially when I add a little machine embroidery.

No lining - the pattern wasn't intended to be lined. However, I might just make one.
