    I made this jacket for my friend, Linda, who is our church organist and choir director. I had it done in time for her to wear it while we sang our Christmas Cantata on Dec. 16. I was so glad it fit her. I did all kinds of couching designs on the jacket. It was a "quilt-as-you-go" pattern. The tote was made from left-over strips from the jacket construction. I'll give it to her this Sunday.
