More LIfe Vests and Jackets


 
 Hello!So, you get the idea now! I've been making garments and having a grand time. The pattern is of my design. I will be glad to teach a class or make a vest or jacket using your materials.
Pictured above is Diane Wright on the left wearing the insulated coat I made using her own Bark Cloth.   Yes, that's me on the right wearing my own coat of Bark Cloth.




This is Christina Blais in her studio at The Nest Arts Factory. She is modeling my latest buttoned jacket which is all pieced cotton.Yummy I like it myself!
So, I'll leave you for a while now.
Please call or write with any questions you may have!!!!!Or, to say hi!
Thanks for listening, Karen Loprete
