Anyway this is the return of the jacket - lovely McCall's 6844 - finally in jersey of the 7th edition.
What I sewed is actually something like this:
This is my 7th run at this pattern and I think this time I knew what I want. View C in the back and view A in the front (with a bit of redrawing the hem line). I also took like 3/4 inch at the shoulders ( too wide ... ). I shaped the collar to be round in the front low part. I think it looks better like that and I don't have to worry if the lines meet nicely when is folded in all postures. The new thing is that I added pockets this time. Not sure how they will hold on jersey but I love pockets. I managed to match the print almost perfectly with the pockets and you can hardly tell they are there in the pictures at least.
I just LOVE LOVE LOVE this . It turned wonderful ... and this time I knew before that it would. This is my favorite pattern and this jacket is already one of the most loved items in my wardrobe.
It is gorgeous! And looks lovely on you. The fabric is wonderful. I really like your changes to the pattern. You have a true TNT pattern with this one.
