Outerwear - Spencer Jacket

I used Simplicity Pattern 2508 as a base. This is made of 100% Cotton fabric and thread. The whole thing was sewn up white. I put it all together and dyed it with Dark Brown Rit Dye. (Which was one of the most agonizing moment!) I finished it with 14 fabric covered buttons. The dying process did break down my interfacing for the collar so I had to press and starch the whole thing to get it back in shape. It all worked out.
