I’ve has this blazer for awhile, but I’ve always found it too plain for my taste. A few days ago I decided to give it a makeover. I hemmed the sleeves and took it in a bit on the sides to give it a better fit. Then I added sequins to the pockets and collar. Each one is an individual sequin I sewed on by hand. Sitting still drives me crazy so I love to have projects like this to work on while I watch movies. I’m definitely going to get a lot more use out of this blazer now!
