Hello Everyone, So I am not quite sticking to my new years resolution, but I have some awesome excuses. I have been working on my Steam punk Pirate costume for June. I have the jacket just about done. I modified a late 20th century Jacket pattern. BTW have I mentioned how much I love having a dress form, this piece would not have been possible without it. Anyway, here are some pics of the work in progress. I was inspired by a jacket I saw at a booth at Wondercon a couple weeks ago. So take a gander and let me know what you all think. I will post more detailed descriptions when the coat is completed. ( I still have a some trim to add to the collar and cuffs, and buttons on the cuffs) Back Front Details
