For some reason I have been obsessing about making it in a thick, navy cotton sateen for summer (of which I have 4.5 yards). I would wear it with my camel-colored RTW wide leg pants, a yellow skirt and khaki skirt (that are in my "to be sewn" queue - just twinkles in my eye at this point). I might even make a matching pencil skirt with the fabric for a summer suit... so many options! So wearable!
But cotton is soooo less forgiving than wool. Would I drive myself insane trying to do a princess seam with a thick cotton? I just can't get this vision out of my head! I'm all about making this jacket in wool for fall/winter, but right now I'm dreaming of a cotton version...
