Bungee
Jumper by Deanne Bodeau:
"I don't know about you but this is just about the closest thing I'll ever
get to 'Bungee Jumping'. This 'comfort fit' jumper is a perfect place to combine
your favorite coordinating fabrics or a blank canvas for your creative piecing,
applique or embellishments. It's a quick sew-up, limited only by your imagination!
Tighten your belt, secure your ankle straps, take the risk and come jump with
me. I challenge you to be a jumper too!"
Suggested
Fabrics:
Light to medium weight cottons, rayon, silk, linen or lightweight wool. Tip:
Varying scale, texture and color but not value, will create a garment that is
more figure flattering. Too many different values could look choppy. You want
a smooth, safe jump!
Notions:
sewing thread, thread for topstitching - regular or heavy weight. Seven to ten
buttons.
