Description

My first coat! I’ve worked on it for about two months. On and off, making other stuff in between, but still it was a lot of work. But I don’t mind, because I got exactly the coat that I wanted and I learned a lot. It’s warm and I love the color (most accurately portrayed in the 2nd pic). I added an extra zipper behind the buttons for extra warmth.

      Thanks! It was not easy to get the fit right with so many seams!
