Moto Jacket by Jennuine Design

First up before I get into the details of the pattern...can I just say how I love this picture of Clara. She looks like she could be a Ralph Lauren model...it's the red, white and blue color scheme that brings him to mind, but it's her face too.

As for the pattern, it's the Moto Jacket by Jennuine Designs.

A great pattern that I had the chance to help test.  This was a fun one to test because it challenged me as well, as it has zippers and welt pockets.  It's always fun to take on a challenge.

It's meant to be a more light weight jacket, not one to be worn over sweaters, but it is oh so stylish.

I used heavy weight home decor fabric, flannel and rib knit for this jacket.  Clara picked out the color scheme and fabric (except for the main one as I already had that in my stash).

I love the bike fabric she chose...it adds a little whimsy.

The pattern itself is well written and easy to follow. If you've never sewn a separating zipper or welt pockets, you will learn something new and Jenn will walk you through the steps.

If I had the ability to get my hands on some leather, I would LOVE to try this pattern out with it.  As it is, there is going to be a pattern tour and I have some more ideas for this one.
