annie11 said... Thank you! No, I didn't modify the shape of the hem. But perhaps putting the hook and eye at the center front changes the way it hangs. 11/15/09 4:07 PM

Annette1 said... Oh, it's so nice to see this made up, Annie. I love this pattern, too, for all the reasons you stated, PLUS I liked that there is a REAL sleeve in there, if you know what I mean, a nicely shaped sleeve. You look SO PRETTY in that COLOR, and the coat is SO flattering! :o) 11/15/09 6:18 PM
Karendee said... This is really a lovely coat and quite distinctive. I might have that same fabric in a rust/orange tone. I'll need to check. Anyway, enjoy your coat during this fall/winter. 11/15/09 7:43 PM
DorothyK said... Wow. This coat looks great on you. The style and color are very flattering. 11/15/09 7:50 PM

Athene said... Great coat. Thank you for the review. I bought this pattern as soon as it came out but have still not decided which of my fabrics to use to make it up. I like your idea of a hook and eye at the center front for closure. 11/15/09 10:40 PM
Christas said... So pretty! This looks wonderful on you. I love the color and the texture of the fabric you chose for the pattern..... super stylish! 11/16/09 0:17 AM

DivaQ said... l just finished this coat. I haven't reviewed it yet. I like your idea about the hook and eye. 11/16/09 6:04 PM
Barbara V said... Really beautiful coat! The wool boucle in jade is very rich looking especially on you and lends itself to a fine looking garment. 11/16/09 8:02 PM
digs57 said... What a gorgeous coat! That fabric has great drape for a soft garment like this. Gee, if I had just another yard or so of the stuff, I'd make a nice long sleeveless vest to go with it. With frogs. 11/17/09 7:07 AM

Margasweet said... I just bought this pattern and am checking the reviews on it... thanks for your informative review! And, to top it off, I have that same jade wool boucle' that I haven't cut into yet. Hadn't thought of using it for a coat, but now I'm seriously considering the idea, lined with jade/navy silk charmeuse (since many of the other reviewers suggested at least a partial lining). 10/19/12 12:59 PM
