I just finished the jacket and the matching top.
The jacket was made with the fabric Childsbury (This fabric was made in Italy for Dolce&Gabbana). I used the Butterick pattern B5107 (but in a simpler version - since I don’t care much for the two slits on the two sides of the jacket).After a tough time finding the buttons with color to match the jacket, I chose the buttons with the color blue – that resembles the blue bubbles in the tank top. I think they work out well.
The sleeveless top was made with the silk fabric Bubble Galore using Butterick pattern 5941.
The color scheme of these two pieces makes them go very well with a pair of jeans

I love the design of the pattern - a double pointed dart and a princess seam going into the armseye. Good work handling the curved seams and those set in sleeves look perfect! Great job!
