One of the things I wanted to try when I started my sewing classes was making a nice and elegant coat. After browsing the internet and setting my Pinterest on fire, I found this:
And this is my version of it:
I changed the back a bit, but I’m very happy with the result:
Ok, I have to iron it again and after trying it again I need to move a bit two of the buttons, but overall I am very pleased. At first I thought of making bound buttonholes, but being the fabric a bit on the thick side, that would create a lot of bulk. I finally settled for regular buttonholes.
This is crazy good! It looks so fabulous. How long does a project like this take? And I love the vibrant blue color.
Thank you 🙂 This project took me ages. If I remember correctly, I started in October or November and I finished last week. But I have to confess that almost the only moments I worked on it was during the classes, that is two hours each Monday, except for a couple of weeks during Christmas and some other weeks that I didn’t go. I didn’t have a proper sewing machine, and the only thing I did at home was cutting the interlining.
I Love it!!!
Qué bonito!!! Te ha quedado muy bien!!
