Kantha Jacket

The embroidery continues. The jacket looks like a crazy sampler since I use it to practice stitches that have completely slipped my mind and fingers. I love learning new techniques and seeing the patterns grow. In the meantime, I used a lovely kantha quilt I got from Frioz on his last visit to Bellingham and made a jacket from a Simplicity pattern classed as "easy". Well, most of it was easy, until I got to the front lining and the collar, when it looked like a crazy jigsaw puzzle. But it worked! All it needs now is buttons.
