McCall's M8121 Jacket

upload-1536-1762823735-rwwY3DivdL.jpeg

I've started working on the McCall's M8121 jacket. 

I've got the fabric. A beautiful fine green needlecord corduroy. 

I've been tracing the paper pieces, all 26 of them, in my size. It's given me a great opportunity to see what's what and plan the construction of the jacket working alongside the pattern instructions.

Hopefully start to cut out fabric and lining in the next couple of days.

Has anyone made this jacket? I'd love to hear from you.

26 pattern pieces?! Wow! Well done for taking the time to trace them all. I've not seen this jacket but it looks beautiful!

It's the most pieces I've traced. Took a while believe me, but with some music playing I got into a rhythm. Funnily enough it gave me an opportunity to familiarise myself with the pattern. I'm really looking forward to getting my teeth into it.
