As usual I’m rather late to the pattern love party, but here is my Hawthorn. I wanted a cold weather version, so made this from a brushed cotton (this did mean that all the layers in the collar and facing became rather unwieldly). I found aspects of the pattern challenging, but I love the result and will make another, perhaps in a thinner fabric. There are more details on my blog.

That is so cute in plaid! Well done!
Oh I love this in plaid! Lovely job!
Love the plaid! I have some pinstriped shirting in my stash waiting to be made into a Hawthorn. Can’t wait until I get some time to put it together!
Just perfect!!! I know what you mean about using a thicker fabric as my last hawthorn is made of cotton sateen. But it is so worth it for a cool weather dress.
