Patchwork jacket

This jacket was made for me by a friend back in the late '80s in return for some admin work I did for her. She had little money but lots of talent as a costume maker and aerialist.

A few years later she raised the money to employ me for a year. This jacket could tell a few tales and I still wear it regularly.

It's a bit strange, though 'cos when I put the hood up the elastic is so tight I look like Kenny from South Park. But more colourful ....
