Ann Smith said... Your coat looks terrific as do you in it. I made this many years ago, I guess when the pattern first came out. I wore it a lot. After awhile it seemed way too over-sized and out of style. Last year I got it out again and like it once again. It seems loose is coming back. Mine is black too. 1/18/07 2:32 AM

dresscode said... Wow! You've really shown how great those Miyake patterns are in real life! By chance, is that your "fabric stash" behind you? LOL! It sure is organized! 1/18/07 1:02 PM
Harriet Rogers said... Thanks for all comments. I had meant to include a picture of the pattern envelope and a picture of the welted pockets that are under the flap, but I dropped the camera twice and think it is not-fixable. (I may have needed an "up-grade" anyway is how I'm going to explain to myself why I'm going to buy another camera) Ann-Gorgeous-yes, that is G Street in background. Next time you're in town, email or call me: I'd love to meet you there for some snooping around and hopefully, lunch. Dresscode, ha-ha: my stash, thankfully is not quite as large as the G Street Store in Rockville, although, my husband may take exception to that statement. 1/18/07 4:55 PM
GorgeousFabrics said... Harriet, I'll be there in May. PM me with your contact info and we'll definitely get together. I'd love to see you again! -Ann 1/18/07 5:31 PM
CarolynGM said... I, too, made this coat many years ago. I loved it until DD stole it off my back. She loved it too until the moths got it. I'm pretty sure that I still have the pattern. 1/19/07 8:06 AM
Melody said... Harriet, I love your coat, it's perfect on you. Thanks for the many photos. The lining is so much fun as well. It looks great and it looks great on you. 1/19/07 2:57 PM
AnneM said... When I think "basic", Issey Miyake is the 1st thing that comes to mind ... NOT. However, you did get a great jacket that can pass as basic or not. Like the lining. 1/24/07 9:12 PM
Celina M said... Hi, Can you update your picture links? Because I couldn't find them on flickr & I'd love to see this coat.
