This weekend I was going through my patterns and decided to get this one out. I read the instructions again and thought (quite dubiously), well maybe I can do it. I looked at the review for it at Pattern Review. One review said it was a great pattern for someone to learn some new techniques like the welt pockets. I am encouraged. I am going to have a go at it. I will trace the pattern tonight and hopefully get it cut out during the week. If I have a chance this weekend, I will start. The welt pockets are one of the first things to be done so I will know fairly early in sewing it if they are too hard or not. Once I have completed the welt pockets, I am fairly confident that I won't have any problems with the rest.
Maybe I need a patron saint for sewers.

Therese, I said a little prayer for you, and I looked up the patron Saint of sewing :-) I found out that it is Saint Ann. Happy Sewing!
Good luck with it Therese, it looks like a lovely pattern.
Thanks Honey and Kelly.
Steve is off to Adelaide tomorrow so I have asked him to call into St. Pauls and see if he can find a small picture of St. Anne for me to have on my sewing table.
I made a suit jacket for David once! it isn't so hard if you just focus on a step at a time. Have fun.
