Cannot wait for the weather to cool off... velveteen is a little warm. Using the Sense and Sensibility Spencer/Pelisse pattern (many thanks to Caroline for letting me borrow it!) I made this spencer a few weeks ago. The pattern was fairly easy to follow and the project was a quick one.
I love the diamond in the back! And when I went to find buttons I was so happy to discover four brown velveteen covered ones. They were a little smaller than what I wanted but oh well, it still made me happy :)
I'm sorry for the poor quality pictures.... it was raining and we couldn't take them outside! When I wear it later this fall (too hot now!) I promise to post something a little better.
Now I need a dress to match it well.... hmmm...
