It’s now drafted after a couple of attempts and the pattern pieces are cut; now it’s time to do a toile. Here goes nothing!!
I wanted to create a life time achievement, to combine my two loves, pattern drafting & patchwork, so what better way than in a coat. Not your usual patchwork coat but one of my own designs. I wanted to have a coat that has a wow factor. So the challenge has started………

The Pattern
It’s been years since I've cut a pattern, I just can’t for the life of me remember how to draft silly things like collars. Where do the seams on a fitted jacket sleeve lie. Oh help I just can't remember, well back to the books I go! I’m glad that I kept all my college work now; I knew there was a good reason for it and that I’m not just a hoarder!!
