After a couple more tweaks, I'm happy enough with the adult cowl pattern now to use proper precious hoarded fabric. I made this one with my retro boom box french terry fabric. Look familiar?
Here's tiny Jamie sporting the very same!
I like the hip length muchly.
The collar was made a bit higher, but rather than self-folded it was lined with black jersey so you can see the contrast when folded down.
But I think I like it more folded up. This isn't the fabric I want to use so much it hurts though, so does anyone have any suggestions before I take a deep breath and cut it?!
I love that!
ReplyDeleteLooks fabulous!
ReplyDeleteWow. I love that and it's so flattering. You look fab.
