Coat

Since buying my new sewing machine I have used it less than I would like, and then mostly for fixing things. Last weekend I finally found time to make something.


WAITING TO GET A GOOD PHOTO!

Pattern: Simplicity/Built by Wendy

Fabric:

This took me a lot of the weekend to make, but was relatively straightforward. I had admired this coat which used the same pattern, and I am quite pleased with the result. I think I may almost be over my fear of button holes:) The coat material is maybe not as thick as I would have liked, and I might add some further fabric between the outer and lining for a bit more warmth. I like the style of the coat and I have work it every day to work this week.
