Athene said... Very nice - I have the pattern but have not tried it out yet, so it was good to see a review. 12/28/10 9:12 PM
Athene said... I have one question. Is the sleeve width generous enough without alterations to have a sweater or jacket on underneath without feeling tight? 12/28/10 9:58 PM
Rhoda K said... A beautiful coat and love the style. I look forward to seeing you model the coat. 12/28/10 11:13 PM

taylormade said... Very cute coat on you. I love your fabric choice and button. Also, I did make the longer version and it looks great (no review yet, but I'm working on it). Sleeve width is very generous, as you said, and I love the size of the lapels~ So great job! 4/13/11 12:06 PM

iSewQuiltArt said... I have been coat prowling for some time and this pattern has really taken my eye. I love your version in the Vera Wang wool, it is good to read there is plenty of ease in it for garments underneath. 5/14/12 7:11 AM
