B5332 & V8491

I don't know why I just can't finish this outfit. It only needs buttons. I thought I had some in my stash. I was going to use covered anyway. Guess when I had planned to wear this? There were no unique problems sewing this. It just wasn't ready for when I wanted to wear it and now we've had some very warm weather and I won't wear it unless it's a cool Sunday or other event. The jacket is loose-fitting with double breast front button closures. The dress is a close-fitting, sleeveless and fully-lined with darts and a back center zipper, and slit opening. Anyway, this was intended to be worn on Mother's Day. I refuse to let this become a UFO that hangs around until next one. I will keep you posted when I get buttons, LOL!

Beautiful dress and jacket. That outfit could go anywhere, anytime, if only she had buttons!

Please don't wait too long to get buttons. I am envisioning something prismatic.

Ohmygosh...that jacket from the Butterick pattern is awesome! I saw the pattern and thought meh, but now I will have to give it a second look. Please find some buttons soon because it is a beautiful outfit!

Beautiful! Don’t forget to carry a swatch of fabric in your purse so you can use it for choosing the right buttons!
