Well, I’m a little bumbed. I worked really hard on my latest project for the PR contest, but apparently I didn’t make it by the October 31st midnight deadline. My clock said “11:58pm, but I guess my clocks are a little bit slow. You’d think I would have learned a lesson from the last PR contest considering I barely got that entry in on time, but all is not lost. (Apparently, they did receive my entry in time. I guess the system got bogged down with everyone trying to put in last minute entries. Yay!!!) I still got to create something that I think I’ll finally wear out of the house (wink!) Its still hard to believe that I made my first jacket. I’m so excited and motivated to do more!!!
Here are some more pics!
And here’s a picture of the coat that I recycled:
It really did take forever to rip the seems out of this big coat, but it was worth it, and I still have enough material to make something else!

This jacket is fabulous! I can’t believe it came from the coat pictured. What do you have planned for the rest of the material?

Hmmm…Good question Bridgette. I have no idea. Right now its just sitting in a pile on top of the baby’s stroller (LOL)!
