If I remember correctly, the fabric is a cotton drill and the lining was a silk. Errm, I think the pattern was McCalls, but I can’t remember now.

Thanks! This coat was actually my first attempt at making a coat (I’ve since made another coat) and I didn’t find it too bad. I was attending some dressmaking classes at the time and my teacher there helped me along mind you, but the actual work was all done myself. It’s up to you, but try it if you want – it’s a good challenge!
