That's a lovely photo of you together.<br />The power of nature in the Amazon would make me feel so small, in a good way though. <br />And you skills at asymmetry are inspiring. Funny that when I sew sleeves or pantlegs they often come out spirally even without the piping. Luxurious fabrics inside are great for Mona Lisa smiles outside.Melaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06218727738029858422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3482123419519585242.post-15964532710895296182014-01-26T19:15:00.950-08:002014-01-26T19:15:00.950-08:00Fantastic images and the picture of fruits reminds...Fantastic images and the picture of fruits reminds me of home (same geographical location with Brazil) :) I think I saw 'petai' there too (the green long bean look a like) which is strange.. we categorize it as vegetable back home, so seeing it in the fruit basket is new :)<br /><br />Mrs Jack Of All Trades<br />Dubai UAEMrs Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02178844577945919297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3482123419519585242.post-35569350627144312982014-01-26T15:06:10.463-08:002014-01-26T15:06:10.463-08:00So much fun in this post...I love the pictures.

Both of your jackets have the WOW factor here. They are fabulous. I love the sleeves, and that looks like Sham's creative talent there. No indication on the pattern about spiraled sleeves.
