Finally finished!
I just slipped in under the wire ... I knew I had a class with Gwen on Thursday, June 12th, so what was I doing late Wednesday night? Sewing the final panel onto my SSK. I wore it to class on Thursday and everyone seemed to like it.
The huge bat-wing sleeves are a little overwhelming for my 5 foot stature and Gwen suggested removing one panel from each sleeve to make it a little less fabric. I'll probably do that and also take her suggestion that I crochet an edging around the neck and front to give it a little more structure.
I completed the jacket though, and Gwen liked it, and I'm happy. 
This picture is sort of crappy and doesn't show the fabulous texture of the thing. I may try to post another picture later.

I do like it and it was AWESOME to see a completed one in person. It was especially fun since Penny showed me completed panels at same event last year.
Absolutely beautiful! You did good! I'm a failure, but it is still on my list of things to finish. :)
