BjP said... Wow, this is a one-of-a-kind awesome coat! Love it. So unique and it looks wonderful. 2/7/05 9:17 PM
PVA said... Beautiful, I really love what you've done with that pattern! Very creative! Thanks for the review. 2/7/05 9:24 PM
Mary Stiefer said... Haute couture - for sure.
Nice Job. 2/7/05 10:13 PM
Lilibet said... Very striking. I love the way you have played with colours, textures and shapes. I agree the length of the coat would be better balnced with a more generous collar. 2/8/05 4:58 AM
MaryBeth said... Ha! unique and certainly not RTW. I agree with you about the collar shape, esp with your added fabric design. The back is very striking, though, with the collar turned up. 2/8/05 6:48 AM

meli88a said... very nice. the cut of the coat really shows off the fabric you chose. 3/1/05 7:39 PM
kathi s said... Beautiful coat- your redrafted collar is much better. Good luck with your entry! Thank you for your very helpful review- 3/1/05 10:30 PM
hongkongshopper said... When I looked at the photo of the pattern, I thought booorrring! But then I looked at your garment! How did you see such a great coat in such a mediocre pattern? And the new collar - you lowered the neckline as well? Fantastic! 3/2/05 4:27 AM
MickeyFan said... Londa, I wish I had one tenth of your creativity! This came out beautifully. I liked the first collar just fine - at least in the photo it did not look homemade. That said, I think the new collar is even better than the one out of the envelope. 3/2/05 6:24 AM
PVA said... Londa, I think the time you spent on re-drafting the collar was Very Well Spent! Now, the scale is perfect! Thank you for showing us that "quick & easy" is what darn well nearly killed the home-sewing industry! (that, of course, is MNVHO! 8^D) 3/2/05 10:19 AM
