I feel like I am over handling my jacket what with all the hand sewing, and that it will be a misshapen ravelly mess when I get done.

Looks like you have enjoyed the cardigan.<br />I tried to email you with answers to your questions on my blog as I was afraid you would not read them if I answered there, but I don't use the right type of email. The linen will work fine if it will drape in that back area. From other blogs, the complaint some have had about fabric is that stiff fabric will stick out on the sides. As far as the back pockets are concerned, I see no reason they couldn't be straight. I double checked them before sewing as I thought I may have made a mistake with my placement marks. I decided to go ahead and sew them as Burda designed it - I was not up to doing anything differently at that point! It is a cute skirt - I have worn it several times to places I know I won't see the same folks!Kathihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11152942097072530468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3098393915488355682.post-23827442312873532412010-08-03T20:09:56.966-07:002010-08-03T20:09:56.966-07:00Your chanel jacket is looking very good.
