tsedai said... Awesome! I made this coat a while ago - I too thought the pocket placement was much too low. Yours looks great in the coating fabric, and I love the color combo of the wool fabric and the lining. 10/27/11 1:53 AM
MVi14 said... Thank you! This was such an enjoyable project. Usually I expect to mess up the finishing touches like attaching zippers or making buttonholes so I was pleasantly surprised the buttonhole making went without a hitch.
Tsedai, glad you liked the combo. I was havng doubts when I received the lining as it turned out darker than the swatch I saw online. But the brown flecks on the wool fabric made it all right. 10/27/11 9:20 AM

MVi14 said... Thanks Elizabeth! My daughter gets to keep the coat, though:) She simply glowed when I told her she could have it after I saw how it looked on her. 10/27/11 11:06 AM
