Recent project - wedding jacket
My Husbands best friend Daves' Fiance Magdelena (now wife) asked me if I could make her a cardigan to wear for her wedding day so she could wear it in Church over her dress. At first i was worried that I wouldn't have time to do it then when I found out what she wanted I had made a toile and I was practically there. I had to make a few amendments to the pattern, then I realized i had made too many and downsized it back to the original.
I took it with me to Slovakia where she was getting married and the only time when was going to be able to try it was the day before her wedding, I was very nervous it would fit.
Anyway the day came and she put it on and I had a huge lump in my mouth and baited breath.
Moments later I realised it fitted and looked great.
All the photos of her look amazing in it so I was very happy, I am particularly pleased with the lace on the cuffs, it looks beautiful with her bouquet.
Here's a photo
