Desperately Seeking Susan jacket

Here's how the jacket turned out!  Overall I'm very satisfied with the results - mostly I wish I could have found (or made) a better trim to go around the red banner.  I experimented with drawing the words on the fabric, but in the end I did that on the embroidery machine, too - to get clean, sharp lines.

I was able to create a template from the auction's photos.  The beadwork around the eye turned out really nice, though I wish I had used a wider zig-zag for the stitching (minor complaint).

I also found a suitcase on Etsy to paint.  Huge pain in the ass making those stencils, but in the end I was very pleased with the results.
