Eleven years old and I still love it!

I bought the fabric, when I bought this pattern in 1997. It's a dark brown wool with dark rust and cream pinstripes. I'd make this just the same as it appears. I'm even loving the hairdo. Okay, this goes on my 2009 stash reduction list.

Oh man, I remember those Essence collection patterns! I still have quite a few of them in my collection - now I will have to dig around in it and see if I can find them!

I like that pattern and can't wait to see it made up. I love finding those older treasures in my stash too.
