Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I am in “coat-mood” at the moment and I finished this one just this morning. Run into a few problems with the fit, mainly because I keep forgetting that american size 14 isn’t the same as english size 14. So I had to reduce quite a bit but I am happy now with the size. What do you think?
