My first pattern review. I see a lot but I have never actually reviewed a pattern. So here you go!
Pattern: McCalls 7100 with a twist (Bomber Jacket Action)
Fabric Used: Ankara fabric purchased at AKN fabrics and knit ribbing from Joanns
Pattern Sizing: I cut out a large based on my current measurements.
Did it look like the picture /drawing on the pattern envelope once you finished the project: Yes I got held up one part so I made a slight change.
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern: I overal liked the pattern. It tested me so I enjoyed the process.
Pattern alterations or any changes you made: I didn't understand the pattern piece 9 and how to add that particular part so I used the ribbing all around the bottom instead of how it is pictured. (Since making the jacket I’ve done my research and my next one will be perfect)
Would you sew it again: YES!!! The next time
I will line it and I want to make one for my oldest.
See below for more pics of the process and how I styled my jacket!
Edit- Since I wrote those post I have figured out Peice 9 and I am gearing up for my second bomber jacket during fall makes.
The photoshoot was super fun. My daughter Little Miss Jay was behind the lenses and even though it was a little overcast I can't wait to do it again.
