We have always been drawn to a good coat pattern . . .
We have purchased many, and sewn few. . . {you can see a few of our past coat creations HERE, HERE, HERE, and HERE}.
Yet, the Papillon and Mandarine, Agatha was too cute to pass up!
This stylish coat pattern runs from size 2 – 12.
For LG, we sewed a size 6.
Fortunately, this outfit wasn’t a huge investment for us. We bought the main fabric at the Textile Fabrics remnant sale {75% off original price}.
The light pink lining was from our stash.
Buttons were purchased at Joanns – using the same style, but two different sizes.
Did we like the coat? YES!
Were we proud of ourselves for sewing a coat pattern?
ABSOLUTELY!
But this is just the beginning . . .
EA and CL also received handmade coats this year.
Funny “back story” on the coats: The girls actually received bags of fabric for Christmas from us – with all of the pieces cut out for their coat . . . just not sewn. Needless to say, we were running a bit late on these gifts – but hopefully, they were worth the wait for the girls!
