My 1st Pattern Review! McCall's 5531

Whew! That took forever. I just posted my first review on Pattern Review! You can read it here if you're interested.

Any tips on a good site to host pictures for places like pattern review? They won't let me use flickr. I used photo bucket this time, but I didn't know if there are better ones. I'm not really good with all this computer/photo stuff.

Here's pictures of the finished jacket. I am really happy with how it came out. It makes me feel cute. =) I just love new jackets!


I didn't fully line it like the pattern suggested...I left out the sleeve lining and the skirt lining. It ended up working well, but I am sure thankful for my a serger!

Here's the back:

  1. Oh, Jess, it's adorable! I love the topstitching. I think it's fine that you only lined the upper part and the front. I can't wait to see it on you. love, Mom
