I made it I made it!

No, I didn't make it to a place, I made something. I finished my sleeveless green patchwork jerkin today. What had been sitting half-done in a cupboard for a few years. Whee! It actually looks good.
I have decided not to put buttons on it, because I would never have done them up anyway, which means it's a lot of work for nothing much. And I didn't have suitable buttons on hand. Which is probably the first reason, except that I would have gone and bought some tomorrow if need be. But need doesn't, so I won't.

I need a cosmos icon.

Congratulations! Will you post a picture of you modeling it for us? :)

Thanks.
Will you post a picture of you modeling it for us?
It never occurred to me to do so.
It would be much easier to just take a picture of the jerkin itself.

That would work too. :)

Well done! (looking wistfully at one's own pile of sewing, mostly consisting of buttons that have been waiting since the turn of the millenium...)

Thanks.
Buttons? You mean sewing them on? That isn't sewing, that's mending. Nobody wants to do that.

Oh good, that's my excuse...
