Making Memories 4


I didn't think I'd ever find a copy of this pattern online! Early 70's again - I made the zipped jacket in a sky blue wool suiting, with a purple/blue wool plaid fabric on the yoke and collar (and maybe the cuffs & waistband too). I don't think I bothered with the hotpants!

I used the pattern again later, making another jacket in mustard wool suiting, this time with a matching flared mini-skirt. It was for work, my first job in the City. I remember wearing it for my interview, travelling up on the train, and feeling very grown-up.
