When I first moved to Berkeley from southern Cal, I complained about how cold it was to so many people that I received 5 warm blankets for Christmas that year! The colors of your jacket are wonderful on you and the style is flattering. I laughed when I saw your photo of the scrunched sleeve -- definitely been there! I hope you are enjoying your Thanksgiving weekend with your daughter!Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11994553975406806627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4920875739028519515.post-17296932847130835982014-11-28T20:06:58.083-08:002014-11-28T20:06:58.083-08:00Looks fantastic on you, both in color and design. ...Looks fantastic on you, both in color and design.

I still wear all the ones I've made over the years and they all still look sharp. Very glad my finishing skills were up to snuff then. Still think there must be a trick re the flat felled sleeve.SJ Kurtzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04871599515352715171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4920875739028519515.post-44306875372755148432014-11-27T19:29:43.767-08:002014-11-27T19:29:43.767-08:00Is it weird for me to LOVE looking at your mitered...Is it weird for me to LOVE looking at your mitered collar?

Our first winter there we experienced three weeks of the temperature hovering around -40 (Celcius AND Fahrenheit), then one day it warmed up to -5 Celcius (23 F). When I went outside I was amazed how warm it was, it actually felt warm! I will never forget that, so yes temperature is all relative,ElleChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16656569539140359204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4920875739028519515.post-88320620880302451572014-11-26T23:34:51.159-08:002014-11-26T23:34:51.159-08:00That is inspirational!
