The Finished Jacket
After 6 long months, the Debbie Bliss Embroidered Jacket is finally finished. Here's the jacket.
Here's a flower close-up.
And here's Charlotte modeling the finished product.
I made this in the 12-18 month size. Luckily, it's pretty big, even on Charlotte who's almost 15 months. Without a huge growth spurt, Charlotte should be able to wear it this fall.

Posted by: Christine at January 20, 2004 10:02 PMThe Debbie Bliss came out beautifully! Charlotte looks great in it, and since it's dark it should stand up to the extreme use of a toddler :)
I'm jealous. You're making real progress on your January to do list. I won't even be finished with my Men-Along in January!

Posted by: Diana at January 21, 2004 06:21 AMCharlotte is a cutie and the jacket just looks great on her. All that embroidery!!! I did a simple embroidered children's cardigan once for a charity craft sale but it was just Lazy Daisy stitches and that was lots of work (I was still a teenager then). And then I did a really nice cardigan for Erika when she was around 1 year old that needed embroidery and I did the embroidered flowers on the front but didn't put them on the sleeves and the back as the pattern suggested. So I admire you for your "stick with it" attitude to get all that pretty embroidery done.
