Dyed and overdyed, resisted, discharged and silkscreened silk broadcloth.
I used this fabric to make the jacket, which I complemented with silk charmuse for the collar and sleeve facings and silk organza for the front and lower facings. The pattern is Vogue 7907.

That jacket is just beautiful. You could not have done any better with the colors and everything you did with the fabric. Wonderful Job!
