(Sorry the text for adding a link is so light. I don’t seem to be able to fix that. If you have trouble finding it, look underneath all the photos. At the left margin, there’s very light text saying, “Add your link”.)

Trying again 🙂 … the other was under 1 MB in size but this is now smaller image of B6244 in sizes 18W-24W pattern layout attached photo (fingers crossed it appears):

@cybele727 that fabric looks very pretty!

@liesl, thanks for the information about the twill tape. I got some and will try it. I finally was able to upload a picture of the pattern for the larger size and wanted clarification on how this should be cut. It seems like piece 2 is on the fold and 1 and 3 are not — is that right?

Thank you!

The third and final day of the sew-along has now been added. How did your skirt turn out? Please share photos of your finished skirts to be entered in the contest.

Added photo to the Lisette Flickr group.

Happy Wednesday! For those of you who are sewing along with us this week, day two is now up!

Would a wool jersey work? Or something like this:

I have a sweater of similar cut as this coat that my mother covets. I’d love to make it in a sweater or lighter jersey so it can be worn indoors during the winter. It gets cold here in the Northeastern US.

Not a great photo, but wanted to share a photo of my finished coat. It is an Italian Double-faced Merino wool wool knit.
I have kept the hem edges raw.
Looking forward to wearing on an upcoming trip to Los Angeles.
At some point would like to make up in a more substantial wool.
What a great pattern. Love the felled seams.

I made a second one in wool/cashmere as a Christmas gift for my mom.
