Such a great tip on using your fingers nails to help make the pattern on the back, and it fits perfectly. I was trying to figure out how to make one for the back of my denim jacket. Thank you! ❤

[@amandapittar9398]

I think what is underestimated is your glorious colour matching and seamless coordinating. That’s what I admire. You pull together things which initially look as if they should not go together… but in your hands, they do. You have an innate colour sense which is a joy. 🤩

[@tmyershandmade978]

Such a wonderful compliment, thank you so much 🤗💕💕💕💕

[@JulieLewin]

Absolutely gorgeous. The magic in this for me was how you made the pattern with your fingernail. I would never have thought of this. It's a gamechanger in design 😊. Thank you so much for sharing. ❤

[@tmyershandmade978]

So simple, right!? Thank you🤗💛💕💛💕💛

[@jdenisethompson74]

[@tmyershandmade978]

Aww yayyy! Jean jackets are so fun to work on!🤗💖💖💖💖

[@christopherspringmann]

Ohhh, busy-busy, but the design integration works really well! I especially like the placement of the butterflies bridging the stock seams to break those strong verticals, while adding color..

[@cyndig8703]

Very fun style. I believe I can put something like that for myself. Thank you of sharing.

I “make” vests out of scarves, with some beautiful wood-encased magnet closures that my German cabinetmaker friend custom made for me. Seeing projects like yours here really inspires me to learn to sew on a machine, at age fifty-plus. This is *so* creatively encouraging. Thank you!

[@cynthiahicks1909]

So happy I came across this vid. I'm currently upcycling a jean jacket and will make it into a vest similar to yours. It's too small for me so I sliced a tri-angle out of the back and will put in a floral swingy material from a groovy dress I picked up from the bins. This craft is so much fun. I sew on a Janome I picked up at a garage sale for 15 bucks. I gave it a little tweak and it runs just fine.

[@tmyershandmade978]

Omgosh, love what you are doing!!!🤗💖💖💖

[@evelynj.amponsah8417]
