curtain jacket
I made this jacket a while back out of my Gran's curtains. I made it for a Peppermint magazine eco competition and ended up coming runner up. I wanted to share this project as I did learn a thing or 2 about using old sun damaged curtains for a jacket. Sadly, due to the harsh sun the fabric was quite brittle which resulted in numerous rips. i still love it! but can't wear it anywhere:( So beware of those old curtains. I continue to use curtains but I am now more careful when purchasing them.

It's a shame the fabric was so badly damaged, because that jacket is GORGEOUS.
