Well I loved my Momma’s light weight linen jacket. I loved it so much I wore it out. I wore it with stains, holes, and ripped seams that I would repair until it was not possible to wear any more.
This was so easily done. I was very pleased with how well every peace fit perfectly together. The fabric I choice was heavy weight linen from https://fabrics-store.com/fabrics/linen-fabric-4C22-natural-heavy. I also made a dress to match my jacket but, I will wear it with every thing. Now, that I have the pattern and it fits me wonderfully I think I will make myself a bathrobe too. That is for another post. Here are pictures of the replacement. So happy, Love you so much Mom, thank you for everything. I loved wrapping myself up in your little jacket since you have been gone. Love this, will be wearing it often.

That’s just beautiful! I wish I could make clothes! I love the fact that you wore it and wore it until you couldn’t repair it anymore….it’s lovely having my Mum’s things in my home and although I don’t have any of her clothes, I do have some things that hold a special place in my heart… 😊❤️
I am very blessed with many things everywhere I look are wonderful reminders of her love. If you have a sewing machine you can make clothes i will help you.

Oh, thank you! I do, but I’m not brilliant on it… my seams tend to get a little wonky sometimes! Lol…
