I bought several yards online of black-and-white geometric print. I hoped to make a summer jacket with it. However, it turned out to be shirting-weight. That's one of the difficulties with buying online. :-(
I could just make a shirt, and put the excess in the stash... Then I had a thought: Might it change the hand sufficiently if I underline every piece with fusible knit interfacing? I did a small sample, washed and dried it, and liked the result. So I just cut out the jacket, and bonded knit interfacing to each piece, and I'm ready to assemble tomorrow.
