Simplicity 2147
The first item of clothing I've made for myself since O level Fashion and Fabrics in 1984.
I used the mini dress length (view a, b) and the longer sleeves (view c). I also added pleats at the elbow.
I made a uk size 14 which is actually a bit big for me. I had a lot of spare material at the selvedge so I think I'll get a size 12 out of that with shorter sleeves and bit of bodgery!
