Java Jackets Created with Jane Foster


Students are Inspired by the Java Jacket made by Jane Foster  

Jane made a jacket using Diane Ericson pattern #104.  Her students were inspired by this and many of them are working on similar jackets.  Jane chose fabrics to match the skin, hair, and eyes of her students, and they then used these fabrics combined with other similar fabrics to design their jackets.  What fun!!

Jane's Java jacket was the inspiration for her students.

Lots of design thought went into the selection of color and fabric placement on all the main garment pieces as well as on the details of the jacket. Fabric matches the color of Vicki's skin, hair, and eyes.

Jane made this Java jacket.

 

Cathe T just completed her Java jacket.  Jane help her choose fabrics to be in harmony with her skin hair and eyes.  Most of them are home dec fabrics that she already had!

 

Carrie's java jacket features Sashiko hand quilting. The dark green fabric is sueded rayon and is her eye color.

 

Janice J in her first java jacket. She recycled a rayon dress for the sleeves and pockets.

 

Dobey had the green circular ribbon trimmed fabric in her stash, and this was her starting point for choosing other fabrics.  She also made the apricot linen shirt and the green pants to complete her outfit.  We used her harmonies as a base for her color palette.

 

Barbara's jacket was made from  a lot of her quilting cottons from her stash.  Jane and Barbara focused on choosing fabrics to match her eye color.
