I’ve completed my SWAP and I am absolutely thrilled about it.
So here are the last 2 pieces, the Minoru Jacket and BWOF 02-2009-108 Bateau Neck Top which I have made before here
These are some photos of the Minoru Jacket that were taken yesterday, showing the hood, lining etc.

For this version of BWOF 02-2009-108 I compared the shoulder and arm holes with my Kwik.Sew 3740 pattern that I really love the fit of and adjusted this pattern to reflect those.
The fabric is a brown/green/cream abstract print from Fabulous Fabrics (sorry girls I thought it was from Knitwit) that I purchased when we went to Perth last September.
Now for the photos, 7 minimum and 12 maximum which we have to lodge by 8 May. Why is the weather forecast for Sydney looking like it could be wet all week and I’ve got 2 short sleeve tops, 1 sleeveless dress and shorts to photograph

Great job to complete this challenge! Love the jacket and the top. I have a fabric which is very similar (I thought it was the same one) as your boat-neck top, which I plan to make up soon.

Excellent! If I recollect, the Minoru has no pockets so you must have added some. The jacket looks cute and so wearable.
