Just been to Jan’s blog and she talks about your jacket so had to come (a week late I know) and see it for myself. There is no other word but WOW! It is absolutely fabulous and no wonder your son liked it (wish I had a son in Amsterdam, love the place). Must visit you ore often, looking forward to seeing the jeans – this is fascinating!@
Hugs, Neet xx

Oh Marit this really is an amazing transformation and a wonderful way to show off those running stitches. I love the way you have intertwined the horizontal and vertical stitches on the back. Along with those extra pieces of patchwork its a unique piece of clothing.
When I studied textiles at College I would always pick up a bargain or two at our local Rag Market and pick them apart to create something one of a kind. It was also a lot cheaper than purchasing new clothes.
Look forward to seeing your next project and maybe using up that left over thread.
Creative hugs for the week ahead & Belated Birthday wishes to your Son he wears the jacket very well..

Wow, lucky son. I may have to send you a couple of my less used jackets! I LOVE what you did for your son, and clever you with making the collar better, he does look great I must say. I might have had trouble parting with such a successful piece of work!

What a BEAUTIFUL jacket!! I know what you mean by forgetting to take photos of the process, I too get so excited about doing the next thing NOW, that I forget as well, and wish I hadn’t. I work in a second hand store – I should think about getting a jacket and trying this! I often see jean jackets, and I love embroidered jean jackets. . . have a wonderful week! Lindart #33
