What a beautiful coat! I would never have given this pattern a second look based on the pattern pics. I love the review!

Your review reads like the pilot for a new TV series and your coat is perfect. Congratulations on both.

That is a very nice Starbuck's sipping coat!

I am not certain I know what you mean by the annoying notch, because it really does look pretty good to me. However, if you are referring to the little unevenness right at the front edge at the collar seam, I am guessing it is caused by sewing the coat like a shirt, i.e. assemble the whole collar, then sew the front and front facing around it. If so, you might be able to get rid of it (on your next coat) by changing the sewing order, i.e. sew outer collar to coat body, inner collar to facings, then sew around the entire collar and CF seams in one smooth operation. But remember this - it may be bugging you but nobody else notices, they just think you look great in that stylish coat!

It was a pleasure to read your review - and what a beautiful coat! I made my first coat this winter and now I am hooked. You will get a lot of compliments on this coat and years of wear. It looks great on you.

Fabulous cosy collar! I loved reading your review.

What's with the the green grass? That does look like a great coat. I love your description of it: a bathrobe for the outdoors. I see the notch youmention, but it certainly looks fine - no one else will notice it (I didn't until I went looking for it).

The coat looks so comfy and nice. Great fit on you too. Now I am encouraged to make mine.

Beautiful coat! Now let's see that coach...

Great review! Both informative AND entertaining. I love your coat.

I SO cracked up reading your review! I have the BBW book and a few patterns. Your review gives me courage to try something harder of hers. Thanks!

Nice looking coat and thanks for the laughs - much needed today as we dig out from a terrible snow, ice, lightening, thunder, rain, sleet and anything else you can think of storm!!

Thanks for the delightful review-- it was such fun to read your humorous perspective of making your fabulous coat!

This is a beautiful coat and I'm sure Coach McHottie will notice even though you are devoted to husband. I know this because you sewed his buttons in the inside of your coat to think of him all through the day. I loved your review!

Thanks for all the comments! For those of you who want to see a picture of Coach McHottie, I don't think I can manage a decent snapshot of him incognito. I could ask him to pose for a shot beside my kid, but then I'm sure I'll raise eyebrows with the other moms. "Imagine using her child as bait!" I could just hear the cackle now... So I leave you with this: think Viggo. Yes, Viggo Mortensen.

Stylish coat. that huh, the other mommies do not have! I had a kick reading your review! Keep them coming to PR! You are a very funny lady! Your story behind the coat makes a more interesting storyline than one pulled from 'Desperate Housewives'!!!!!

Diana, you caused me tears of laughter. I love your coat and your review. Keep 'em coming!
3/3/07 3:28 PM
I'm still smiling from your review. I just bought this pattern today.
3/24/07 3:07 PM
Yay, I have this pattern. I'm totally going to go for it now. Looks awesome!

I'm debating using this pattern and your version is winning me over! It looks very cozy.
