Transforming a Jacket

This is a photo of a waistcoat  that was a ladies jacket not so long ago! Unfortunately I forgot to photograph the jacket before the alteration began,but never mind the end result was good !
Firstly I removed the sleeves ,then the neckline was changed to a "v" style and lastly the side seams wear taken in to give the jacket shape. The owner of this waistcoat was very pleased with the result . I hope this will help to give some of you budding dressmakers a few ideas of your own, regards.

Castletown House Celbridge

Hi all,just to let you know of another great food and craft market is taking place in the grounds of Castletown Houst ,Celbridge, Co.Kildare next Sunday 18th September from 10am-5pm. Such a beautiful and historic house to visit also. Plenty of craft stalls including mine, I will be showing my interpretation of Yeats poem "Tread Softly" on my embossed velvet scarf amongst other items.
