Love the pink fabric you can wear this with your white jeans you made for a great casual look too.<br /><br />The striped cardi is cute, but guess it depends on what it looks like on - hard to judge on the dummy.<br /><br />I did manage to get some steam a seam and it is good - hate picking it off afterward though.<br /><br />Think it will not be long before I have to think about the scissors!!!<br /><br />You certainly have been busy.pdiddlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12231666147175522583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3072586494339347029.post-59249415107652606512011-04-18T22:27:27.743-03:002011-04-18T22:27:27.743-03:00I really like the braided trims on the jacket, and...I really like the braided trims on the jacket, and the striped top is fantastic!

Like I should use tiny hand stitches instead or something. Um, whatever.

I ...I have those notions too on my favourite list! I have to agree that the striped top is not overly special ;/ And a thought for your "chanel" jacket - how about just using the trim on the pockets? Maybe add another set to match lower down. I really like the trim on the pockets but agree it is not so good on the edge. Have you seen Paco's latest jacket? It just has trim on pockets. http://pacoperaltarovira.blogspot.com/2011/04/chaqueta-anne-marie-en-barcelona.htmlVickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01529416439720810403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3072586494339347029.post-2306621673232739012011-04-18T02:51:52.803-03:002011-04-18T02:51:52.803-03:00This doesn't look like not sewing much to me! ...This doesn't look like not sewing much to me!

What about incorporating the ribbon into the braided trim to break up all of the pink? Don't know if that would work or not, just a thought.<br /><br />BarbThe Sewing and Knitting Lofthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17312496842176950269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3072586494339347029.post-76653654591881599362011-04-18T00:15:10.283-03:002011-04-18T00:15:10.283-03:00What pattern is that cardigan?

I really like it and need something like that that can be made in different weight knits.<br /><br />Also, I think the trim on the pockets is great, even if you did no trim on the other edges. This may not be quite the look you want, so you can tell me to hush, I won't take offense. I can't wait to see what you do with it!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07962445987863685289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3072586494339347029.post-51537053739284494122011-04-18T00:01:45.654-03:002011-04-18T00:01:45.654-03:00You have been busy.
