McCall 5668 Gray Suiting Jacket

Pre-Hurricane sewing & posting.  We're still waiting to see where Dorian decides to go.  Dorian was 185mph Catagory 5 hurricane as of Sunday night creeping towards Florida at 5mph and expected to turn North on Tuesday.  Please keep us in your prayers.


I made at matching jacket to go with my slim skirt I made earlier this month.  I've made the McCall 5668 jacket a few times and I am always amazed at the outcome.  I think "I made a jacket!".

I put this tank top in the donate bag because it was too big & I wasn't sure it was worth taking it in. But I kept thinking maybe I should alter the fit and wear it with the suit I just made.  You know when something is nagging you, you should go with it.  I'm glad I did and I think it is a perfect tank with this jacket.

  1. Hopefully the hurricane won't be so bad when it finally arrives! And I'm glad you reworked the top because it goes perfectly with your suit!

  2. I am glad you posted today, as I was sewing I was wondering how you were doing. I like the outfit, the tank is a great pop of color.

    1. Yes, I thought the tank fabric was a good match with this gray/brown/green colored suiting fabric. We're STILL waiting for the storm to decide where to go!
