I think it looks fine.

Great job! My favorite colors :-)
|
The jacket you made for your mother is beautiful! If you think it needs more purple, just suggest that she wear it with purple pants. That should be stunning!
|
I think it looks terrific and I bet your Mom is going to love it! I would!!!
|
I think it looks great.
|
I like it! I like bright colors though. I think you did a lovely job.

I think that the yellow has taken over. I even stippled in a purple thread to calm down the yellow, but it still is too bright. I have it hanging next to the computer and I almost feel the need to have my sunglasses on. (having trouble adding the photo) |
I love it -- perfect
|
I love it!!!!
|
Looks good to me !
|
I am 75 years old and I would love to wear that jacket just as it is.
|
It is beautiful and I bet she loves it. As a purple lover, pansies are one of my favorites. Anyone who likes pansies knows they come in different colors. I only saw the purple at first, and then the yellow. I love the fabric and now have added to my to do list for a wall hanging with it.
Relax and have a great Christmas. |
It's gorgeous! She'll love it. Don't worry about it. If you make another for yourself, or someone else, change it up then.
|
I love the jacket, I know I would love to have one like it. I bet your mom will love it. I don't think that the yellow is to much. If your mom has grey hair it will look really pretty on her. If she doesn't like it you can send it to me. LOL LOL don't worry I am sure she will love it.
|
I think it's beautiful! Your mom will love it!
|
I don't think so at all. I think it is very well balanced and in fact, beautiful
|
my mother's favorite color was yellow; the outside of our house was yellow, had a yellow kitchen, and she had lots of yellow in her wardrobe, am betting your mother will love it. It's a handmade Christmas gift from her daughter, what's not to love.
|
My name is Pat and I am a Jacket-a-holic. :roll: I love makeing and wearing quilted jackets, and I love your jacket! What I see mostly are the pansies, and I do think you mom will love this! Great job! :thumbup:
|
I think that it looks great!! It is bright and cheery.
|
I may have stones thrown at me, but I would never wear this. I think you did an amazing job on it and it is beautiful, but I would never wear it and I am 70 (older person).
Isn't it great that we all have different likes and dislikes? Good work though. |
I agree, it's beautiful. If she has a pair of deep purple slacks it will really set it off. Once you see her with it as part of an outfit and not just on it's own, you'may like it better. You did a great job.

Beautiful.I don't think there is too much yellow.
|
Fabulous. She'll love it.
|
I like it!!!
|
Just my opinion but I wouldn't change a thing. I think it's perfect the way it is, bright and cheery.
|
I think it's pretty like it is.
|
I think it is very nice. A little bit of yellow, red, orange, etc. goes a long way ......but this is tasteful and vibrant. Looks great!!
|
It looks great, I would wear it.

I like the sunshine feel of it!
|
Beautiful!
I would wear it. |
I like it. Yellow makes it pop. Pansy's are pretty.
|
I think it's beautiful, and I think your mother will love it.

Personally I think it is very pretty and bright. I'm sure she will love it!
|
I think it is beautiful but then I love those colors.
|
Well, I'll tell ya, I'm 70, and I'd be wearing that out! It's bee-yoo-ti-ful! And someone mentioned deep purple slacks with it. That would be stunning!
Don't touch a thing. Do be sure to tell Mom, though, that you finally found something that's as vivacious and cheerful as she is. Explain that she is so exceptional, that you felt she needed to have a "presence" when she entered a room. A class act, m'lady. Ya done good. |
I like it just as it is.
