Bonn Dress Shacket

Itch to Stitch Bonn Dress in ramie linen (2.7 metres gifted for review by Minerva but I used 2 metres as I made a printing error on the other piece). The mandarin collar is handstitched. I considered handstitching the hems too but the button centre front is topstitched so I finished it the same  I used brass buttons and the long sleeves for a shirt jacket look. I made a shacket from the Bonn with brass metal buttons last year but donated it as the fabric was too fancy for office or everyday, and similar fabric I purchased for jackets. I might take 1/2 inch off the sleeve next time.


Ramie gifted for review by Minerva.
