Love your choice of fabric and colour. It turned out so well. I have just posted the same coat but mine looks very different. The coat finishing tells me that you are a very experienced sewer. Great job.

A very very well done coat! Extra Extra points for the boutonniere. I was just wondering did you have any problems with the height of the funnel neck, as others trying this pattern have stated?

I did shave some of the acute curve off the funnel neck as I was concerned it might look a bit ‘space age’.

Wow Karen this is THE most perfect handmade coat in the kingdom of sewland. Well done.
