We so seldom have much real winter here that the idea of sewing a coat didn't really inspire me. Over the past year, however, I have collected quite a few vintage swing coat patterns (some reprints that I got on the 99 cent sales and some real vintage patterns). I thought making one of those short coats might be fun.
While perusing the FFC sale a few weeks ago, I saw this wool. I like the color very much and since it was on sale, I decided to go for it. The Coat Sew Along is officially closed, but I think I will try to keep with their schedule. I haven't decided on the pattern just yet. I need to get them out tomorrow and look them over again.
The fabric arrived last week.
Pretty fabric and in one of my alltime favorite colors...turquoise. I look forward to seeing your progress.
