Description
I really wanted a good fitted trench coat, and when i saw burda magazine had a trench coat special, i was so happy! Sadly i couldnt find a very good material for this,and ended up using just cotten twill, which is a little fumbly. In this project i finally got the lining right!. Its got so much details i love, the flaps, the back slit, the waist band holders, etc. i did something fun with the sleeves too :) Alteration wise I trimmed the sides by a lot to make it fit more tightly.
i also put in green lining, the best lining job i did to date!
Material Notes
cotten twill which is a bad choice for a coat!

I shudder to think how difficult that was, it looks fantastic, I doubt I could ever ever make that!

fabulous job! it looks so well made! i’m hoping to make a trench for fall also, and using that pattern (or some slight variation anyway). Your pictures are awesome- your fiance is very talented!
