I wanted it fairly full, so used my Simplicity 1459 1950s vintage pattern as a starting point.  I made it less full, and pleated at the waist rather than gathering.  I wanted something longer at the back, and in hindsight I could have made it shorter at the front to make the shaping more obvious.  I was after something a bit shaped at the back like the Simplicity 2172 jacket, but I didn&#8217;t quite shape it enough.  Lovely poinsettia fabric though, and I loved wearing something completely original on Christmas Day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"576\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/kariscraft.space\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20181211_223011-e1561665632132-576x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"764\" data-link=\"http:\/\/kariscraft.space\/20181211_223011\/\" class=\"wp-image-764\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kariscraft.space\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20181211_223011-e1561665632132-576x1024.jpg 576w, https:\/\/kariscraft.space\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20181211_223011-e1561665632132-169x300.jpg 169w, https:\/\/kariscraft.space\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20181211_223011-e1561665632132-768x1365.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"576\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/kariscraft.space\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20181211_222908-e1561665658592-576x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"762\" data-link=\"http:\/\/kariscraft.space\/20181211_222908\/\" class=\"wp-image-762\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kariscraft.space\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20181211_222908-e1561665658592-576x1024.jpg 576w, https:\/\/kariscraft.space\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20181211_222908-e1561665658592-169x300.jpg 169w, https:\/\/kariscraft.space\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20181211_222908-e1561665658592-768x1365.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We were going away for Christmas for the first time ever.
