I picked up fabric for Peggy while in Atlanta this weekend!
Color is not 100% – but it matches up pretty well, both in texture and weight, to the actual fabric of my grandfather’s WWII jacket, and since that’s my main inspiration, I’m very pleased with it.
Will probably do a test dye sometime soon and see if I can edge it a little bit greener.
When my grandfather showed me his jacket a couple of weeks ago, I pulled up my picture of Peggy and said I was making this costume that was similar to it. He said, “Well, that’s not really like mine, I don’t have curves like that.” LOL
