Description

short autumn coat made from purple wool fabric. I used huge white buttons to add something extra special to the garment, and to mach the buttons I used also white lining fabric.

I must say, I loooove using contrasting colours.

Material Notes

purple wool fabric and white lining fabric.

      Thank you!

      I kind of made the pattern. What I did was used different patterns from burda and matched them to get what I wanted. It’s easier than start from zero and mess up everything… especially when not so good yet. =)
