However, I am thinking of a lighter version where the body would be made out of an African wax fabric. Do you think that it is gonna look good, or that I need something that stretches a bit.

I always get a little tinge of excitement whenever I see a jacket with a bright/patterned lining, or unexpected seams, zippers, buttons, etc. The love for what you do, really shines through. Oh! And if I was wearing that outfit...just knowing that my shoes matched the lining of my blazer would have had me feeling extra fierce!

I remember that fabulous Chanel inspired jacket (and I took a peek-e-lu at the pattern) and there was no zipper. Could this be a rule of thumb for adding a zipper closure to a jacket pattern or any pattern? FYI: love the supergirl costume. I passed by rue21 today and saw the same shirt/cape in the store window. Once again, great job. Thanks for continuing to inspire us to create!!!<br />Trena.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4445615081384739024.post-19829917357738360572013-11-01T12:25:17.254-07:002013-11-01T12:25:17.254-07:00I love your work!
