Rigel round-up (and a winner!)

I’m not quite sure how it happens, but every single year the start of February takes me by surprise. Seriously – every. single. year. And this year? No exception. How the heck are we in February already?!?!?!

Anyway, with the onset of February comes the end of Rigel Bomber Jacket January that Mel, Sonja and I hosted. Which means – it’s time to check out some of the sweet, sweet Rigel jackets that people made, get all inspired, and also see who won the sew-along contest!

There are three winners in total – Sonja, Mel and I each picked one person to win a Papercut pattern of their choice. (And can I just say – super hard decision! So many awesome jackets!)

First up (just for the fun of building the suspense plus an added bonus of lots of pretty Rigels to look at), check out these beauties that were made for Rigel Bomber Jacket January….

(Because, seriously – a sequinned bomber jacket? And that photo shoot amongst the mossy stones? Luxe and laid-back all at once – love it!) (Plus, sewing with sequins kinda terrifies me, so anyone who does so, let alone sews welt pockets with sequins, has massive respect from me.)

Congrats! I’ll be in touch to find out which pattern you want for your prize. 🙂
