MaryBeth said... Ann, I so glad you did this review and the coat looks great on you. I tried this pattern in January and was totally miffed at the huge shoulders. On my frame at 5'2" with slightly sloping shoulders I had to double the shoulder pads even after shortening the shoulder seam .75". 6/23/03 1:17 PM
Karen Bowers said... ann, wonderful! another standout piece in your glamorous collection. 6/23/03 1:25 PM
Dale C said... Great coat Ann. I always thought such a long coat would be overwhelming on a small frame, but it looks great on you. Been wanting a duster coat too, so I just may try making one. 6/23/03 4:23 PM
Gigi Louis said... Gosh, I am missing so many reviews! This coat is absolutely stunning on you, Ann. I've had this in my stash for awhile and was afraid it might overwhelm me. I think I will make this up this fall. Thanks for the inspiration. 7/25/03 6:44 PM
