Yay for jackets! Glad you were able to find something suitable (no pun intended). ^^
BTW, I may have the Volks SDC pinstriped waistcoat that came with the sweater set available for sale, if I can find it. Would you like first dibs on it at all?
Yup, I made it the other day... the fabrics a bit thick and poofs a bit on the collar, but it's not too bad. Some mods and it should be an okay pattern to use. ^_^
(Jaejoong is very yummy. ^^; He's so skinny, but he's very pretty too. He's the 'mum' of a boy band group of five guys - he actually cooks and cleans. O_o)
Ah! Thank you! :D Yes, I draft all my patterns myself. Well, er, 'draft' is a bit of an exageration. I cut up little pieces of paper in the basic shape of what I'm doing to use to cut the fabric, and then mod the fabic pieces to the specifics as I go along.
The best way to do it is find some ready-made piece of clothing that is the basic shape of what you want to make and trace the outline of it. Then, you can change the parts of the pattern that need to be changed to make whatever it is you want to do. Or, you can even look at your own clothing, and how it's sewn, and then take measurements of your doll to scale the pattern when you draw it otu.
My patterns don't come out perfect usually the first time, I have to mod it a little, so my first piece is usually a bit wonky. And because my patterns aren't specific, I tend to get slightly varied results. ^^;

Oh, thank you, but I actually managed to nab that whole set from someone on DOA - it arrived today, and is great. :D Thanks though. ^_____^
