And let me tell you, it feels great to be sewing again. Here I am modeling my latest creation from KS2759. If you recall, I had this sweater knit fabric along with the black and white that had the same floral print. This heavier brown/blue knit fabric worked out well with this pattern. It's more like a jacket. Love the weight and feels comfortable to wear.
It didn't take me long to finish this over a few evenings. I normally like to use a contrast binding, but couldn't find anything in my stash to complement this fabric. So, I cut the binding from the same fabric and well...I could get used to doing this.
Since I don't have any plain brown or blue fabric in my stash to sew a top, I've decided to knit a sleeveless shell to wear under this jacket. I've already picked out my yarn.
I will be posting my jacket review on PR later this week.

Now I really like that.
What a very useful and pretty cardigan. That pattern fits you so well. Makes me want to have a go at it again.
Looks good. I like the idea of a knitted shell!
This is a great little jacket. Susan, are you petite? I thought you mentioned before that you're on the shorter side, but your clothes are always so amazingly well proportioned.
Ladies...Thanks for the complements.
Kat...Yes, I'm petite. So, I have to shorten most patterns. If not in the body area, it's always the sleeves.
