Description

After a very long time of trying hard to upload a new project, i finally changed my internetbrowser and it seems to work again!

So I proudly present to you my newest version of the Adam-coat-pattern. Completly overworked and more modern and lean. Last but not least much shorter and slimer and with a fur trimming.

The outside is again with cashmere, the inside is this time with a thickly quilted silk lining. Most of the seams are finished by hand and i tried my best to give it that special look, i love on selfmade projects.

I hope you like this very warm and cosy version of the Adam coat as much as i do!

Cashmere outside, silk quilted inside, buttons, thread

    It looks so nice and warm! I imagine Berlin is pretty cold already (Budapest sure is. Brrrrrr).

    This is amazing! And perfectly executed. I love that the fur collar is actually a part of the coat. Genius. I am so glad you were able to post.

    Lieber Ralf, du wirst es vielleicht nicht glauben, aber dieser Ostwind incl. der fast sichere Schnee fehlt mir hier ein bissel. DAS ist doch dann richtiger Winter. Liebe Grüße aus dem milden Unterfranken von leokadia

      dear quiltsewsewsue! thank you very much for your compliments. i found the quilted lining in my favorite fabric store, so this one is not made by me. the rest of this coat is absolutly made by me :-)

    Ralf; your workmanship really shines in this project. Love the fur! The details, especially on the pockets are impeccable. This garment should keep you warm and cozy as you say, plus proud that you created it with your own hands.

    Hoorraaaayyyyy!!!! Welcome back Ralf. I was about to start a petition to ‘Bring back Ralf’! And this is exactly what we have been missing! Such an amazing jacket. I am very much inspired by the quilted lining. I am just finishing up a jacket and I wish I had thought of that!

    Ralf, your Adam coat is great and looks so warm and stylish. I really like the Cashmere fabric and the fur collar. How I wish to be able to have a need to sew with such lovely materials. As usual, you have crafted this coat beautifully and it is such a pleasure to see such great workmanship. Enjoy keeping warm in this great coat!!!

      Dear Schnui! thank you so very much for your kind words and the first comment on my coat! it is funny, how much you want to do warm cloth and how much i do not like the cold weather upcoming. But it will feel less horrible in that warm coat :-)

      Ralf, you are right. We are never happy with the weather we are given. As I head for the really hot weather we experience here in an Australian summer, I am busy sewing up some beautiful cotton voile’s which are such a pleasure to sew. Take care and stay well.

      dear schnui! YES we have two new cats: brother and sister named Greta (grey / white) and Jacob (red / white). they are 5 month old now and full of joy and ready for action at any time of the day (and night!) and we love them :-)
