Description

This is the designer project for October in Burda Style.
It’s made with sailor’s jacket wool, very warm and smart in this dark blue color.
It’s my very first coat, and I’m very proud of it.

      Je crois avoir taillé en 36, mais j’ai élargi les manches (au lieu d’une marge 1,5, j’ai fait une marge de 1 cm) car elles étaient un peu serrées.

      Oui, c’est vraiment un beau modèle. En plus, il ne présente pas de difficulté particulière.

      Thanks ! To be straight with you, this is not a very difficult pattern. I just had to enlarge the sleeves. And I’m very pleased with the result.

      Thank you. I really recommend this pattern. It’s not a difficult one. I just had a few difficulties with the collar, because of the seam allowance.

      Merci ! C’était un entrainement avant de m’attaquer à un autre projet de manteau, pour un cadeau. Une sorte de test. Je suis donc contente de m’en être bien tirée.

      You should try, the more difficult was to trace the pattern. I would just recommend you to trace the stitching line of the collar, it’s more easy this way.
