Edwardian Jacket

June 18:

Fin. 

I really like the black trim used on the sleeves and collar, as well as the sturdy black leather buttons   I hope the recipient enjoys it!

What's wrong with the sleeve in the lining?  That's right, it's in backwards.

I'm making a Beatrix Jacket and Beatrix skirt for a Sense & Sensibility photo shoot.  Mrs. Chancey sent the lovely lavender and black hounds tooth, and I bought the lining from the bridal section of Joann's.
