I work in an office building that feels like its 20 below everyday, year round. I wanted to find a pattern for a simple jacket and while at Walmart I came across this pattern while strolling through the Walmart Fabric department. SewSimple which is a Simplicity brand is only .97 cents at my Walmart. I have a few but this is the first that I have actually made. At first glance I passed it up, but went back to get it because I thought it was kinda cute. Then, while surfing one day, I came across The Fearless Seamstress's version, and I absolutely love it.
