Bog jacket with hood. Myras Makings. The Bog Coat: My new obsession.
Lately I’ve been wanting to make clothing very fast with minimal fussing. I found a flat of a bog coat and haven’t a lull of ideas since, I feel so incredibly inspired right now. How is it done? Well all you need is one rectangle of awesomely dyed fabric, have done your calculations/measuring, four persisly measured and cut slits, and two to five seams. Here is my pattern draft/measurements: The four darker lines are where I cut.

I grew up in Hawaii and loved the "mama-san" aprons worn by Japanese women; they seemed so attractive, while being practical at the same time. I've never understood those skimpy little aprons worn by a lot of women...they must not be as messy as I am when cooking! I know, I know, in my last post I was all set to do a major cleaning of my studio, and I DID, for a day or so...but I had ordered, then lost, this pattern a year ago and when I finally unearthed it, I NEEDED to make one for myself...
I used quilting cottons that I had originally bought in my purse-making days and used the pattern as is except for lengthening the sleeves.
