Last month I started sewing this coat and I finished it last night and it made it's debut today. It is the perfect light coat for fall- just thick enough to keep me warm cool but sunny day. I wanted my coat to have a whimsical touch so I chose a cute fabric with little tugboat prints and added big wooden buttons. I'm thinking of making this in a solid color too.

I found your blog through anthroclosetchaos, and I just wanted to say this coat is freaking adorable! You did a fantastic job, and if you wanted another color, A navy wool would be awesome, with toggles as the closure?
I am just sewing a dress right now after about 10 years of not sewing, so this was awesome to see something that was made!
I posted a sneak peek on my blog if you wanted to see? http://whatjesslikes.blogspot.com/2011/11/what-jess-makes-sneak-peek.html
