Pattern Description: Misses Coat

Pattern Sizing: Sizes 10-22

Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it? Yes

Were the instructions easy to follow? Yes

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? I liked the simple style of the coat and felt it worked well with the fabric.

Fabric Used: Marc Jacobs flocked wool floral plaid from Fabric Mart and a silk blend brocade fabric for the lining from B&J fabrics. lining

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: I made a muslin and did not like the fit of the sleeves. I was finally able to remove the drag lines from the sleeves by taking in the seem by 1/4 inch and also following the information found here:pattern correction raglan sleeves
I really wanted pockets and added pocket bags at one point but they did not work with the style of the coat.

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? Yes, if I find the right fabric but I have so many other things I plan to make first.

Conclusion:
Very easy coat pattern.

It's great to see a coat that turned out well: they can be so labour-intensive. That Raglan sleeve link is very helpful.

Thanks for the link to the information about correcting a raglan sleeve pattern. :) Your coat seems nice from the thumbnail (when I click on the photo, nothing's there).
