I drafted this last night and it actually sewed up perfectly. Including the armholes, God is obviously smiling down on me after yesterday's post. I made an retiree take these pictures. He's doesn't think I'm weird at all.
And the 'I'm a coward and always were black side'. You can see better from this picture that it's an asymmetrical collar coat.
I was kinda shocked how long adult arms are. Being a body dysmorphic, it's too big but I think it's still wearable. What do you think?
a. Wear it outside the house, with impunity!
b. Wear it outside the house, on the way to the asylum.
c. Wear it inside the house, when no one else is around.
*LOL* it looks nice... it needs a brooch on the plain black side though.. or a scarf.
ReplyDeleteI actually have a piece of that fabric from a trip to Ikea from ages and ages ago... I have used a teeny tiny piece and ignore the rest because I had no idea what to do with it.
um... GENIUS! seriously brilliant. good work!
ReplyDeleteand definitely wear it outside the house. :)
A)!!
ReplyDeleteBloody hell Amanda, it's gorgeous!
I would seriously consider buying one of these coats from you, when our financial situation is better, it is really really nice!!!
ReplyDeleteWear it outside the house, of course! (Who cares what others think, really.)
ReplyDeleteI am so glad to see you've copied Maia's pose!
That's fab - well done! Definitely wear it at every possible opportunity :)
ReplyDeleteI want one!
ReplyDeleteHow much fabric do you need?
How long will it take?
How much will it cost?
it's gorgeous so most definately option A - i think i need one! i'm a coward and would wear plain outside!
ReplyDeleteOh! Ditto, ditto, ditto to Mrs Jellybelly. I have birthday money I want to spend on a coat, and this is what I want! Clever, clever girl!
ReplyDeleteIt's great, I love it! I have a neighbour who thinks I'm mad because I am always taking pictures of cakes out in my garden! :-)
ReplyDeleteYou should definitely wear it out of the house. xx
Awesomely cute!! Wear it everywhere! I love the collar.
ReplyDeleteWear it everywhere! Looks great! :) So when can the rest of us get one??
ReplyDeleteYou did sweetie. It looks wonderful.

*squeeeeee* it's gorgeous. why oh why did you decide to make grown up sizes AFTER I give up my day job? Is it a conspiracy?
ReplyDeleteA, definitely. And, when can we buy the pattern? I want to be really stylish and wear the same coat as my daughter.. waitaminute, I phrased that wrong!
ReplyDeletelove it! wear it every day! and will you make a pattern for it? because I will buy it right away!
