Sewing Vogue 1643 - The Gucci Jacket, tips and review Part 1

Hello my friends!!
This pattern has literally been sitting in my To Do pile for 3 years and I am so glad that it has finally seen the light of day! There is a LOT to unpack in this pattern so there are 3 videos to cover it all. Even though there really aren't that many pieces there is a lot to do with them. Plus I am using, as usual, a tricky fabric. This time it is a beautiful loosely woven wool/mohair/something blend that dearly wants to unravel itself. Then there is the ribbon issue. Please, DO NOT BUY GROSGRAIN RIBBON for this project if you value your sanity and happiness. More about that in the video. And finally I will be working with lining, shoulder pads, sleeve headers, and just having a great time. Thank you so much for watching!
