Looking at the Burda pic again, I thought that the jacket DOES look casual - the fringed edge and the funky zips add to the casual look. The fabric looks perfect for it.Tinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04301158073441986539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6215123741467950471.post-1181168113114999742010-05-14T08:15:11.765+02:002010-05-14T08:15:11.765+02:00I'm a bit of a random projects person too!

For me I would have the darts as I don't find boxy flattering on me.<br />I had a dress form like yours done but I found it was much larger than me - not sure what happened. I only just recently threw it out. My duct tape dummy has also deflated, so I really need a new one.<br />BTW, love that jacket pattern.Vickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01529416439720810403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6215123741467950471.post-36538023274728927612010-05-13T23:33:35.484+02:002010-05-13T23:33:35.484+02:00The jacket is going to be awesome!
