Burda Style For people who sew
Description
Here is a coat I made from the 10/2012 BurdaStyle magazine. This is designer short coat #135. It is made from a medium wool. You can read about it on my blog:

This coat reminds me a bit of Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany’s.

This is a very nice combination you made: simple pattern and strong colour. I really love your version. Bright coats are so beautiful during winter, and so not boring. Congrats!

Thank you! I like to wear bright color when the weather turns cold. It cheers me up, and looks great against the winter snow :-)
