Burda Style For people who sew
Description
From the very first time I saw this fabric in the shop, I knew I had to make something out of it for Niki. She’s a sucker for all things furry or hairy.
I decided to make a coat out of it with a wide lapel that show the furry inside of the fabric.
As Niki is super-pregnant, I didn’t put any closure on it for now. She changes size every day, so I’ll add it when she’s back to normal :)

That is really nice. Its 15 degrees C here today set to min of 5 so I’m enjoying hiding under the covers surfing burdastyle for warm things…

Hiding under covers? I have it on good authority that you’re more of a bed-jumping type :)

what a great work! and the fabric also! I look forward to see more things from you. I hope to finish my waistcoat soon. I still take lessons and learn a lot of it. I like that you put your own label on the jacket! Greatings from Rotterdam

Thank you lala :)
You can see the pattern here: http://sartorialdiy.com/post/7975303545/beginning-of-a-great-adventure
I did change it a bit though, and there is no lining obviously.

It feels great to be back Ralf, thanks for your kind words. I hope to publish some more projects in the future. I’ve never stopped sewing, but I made the mistake of taking a course. I learned nothing and ended up wasting much time that I could have used making things.
So I am back to doing that now :)
