It's that time of the year again folks!
Twice a year, Meg does a fabulous job hosting one of the most fun challenges in the blogger-net. This fall, I decided to take a stab at making a coat for Lala and man-oh-man... can I just tell you how much I am in LOVE.
LOVE I tell ya!
L-O-V-E.
Pattern:
Outershell: Echino Forest fabric
Innershell: Flannel in oatmeal
Notions: 4 recycled buttons
The pattern is uber easy. I was amazed just how fast I whipped this baby up. My only complaint is that I wish it came in preteen-adult sizes.*boo!*

Lala was a trooper taking pics. Fall isn't quite here yet. She managed to wear the coat just long enough for me to take some snaps.
When fall does decide to get here, look out! With this jacket, some boots and a scarf... she'll be the cat's meow on our block!
Lala's coat?
Check!
One done on my list...

I love it! She's so stylish :)

ReplyDeleteI LOOOOOVE this fabric. If it wasn't so expensive, I'd be a Japanese fabric hoarder. ;)
DeleteI absolutely LOVE this little coat! I want something like that for myself. This is really inspiring!
ReplyDeleteMe too! I need to find a pattern for adult sizes...
DeleteMind if I share a photo of Lala's coat on my KCWC faves post on Monday?
ReplyDeleteNot at all! Thank you so much!!!! :)
DeleteJust found your blog via kcwc - this coat totally rocks - I want one! Not doing challenge this time as just did a big sewing binge for my girl a few weeks ago but loving this inspiration .
ReplyDeleteYay! I'm so glad this inspires you. Perhaps the sewing binge? :)
Deleteok, never mind my last comment. You did make the coat! It's precious! Funny, I have tha same pattern (bought it about 2 years ago...)and never made it. OK, so now I need to add 2 more things to my to do list... Thanks... :)
ReplyDeleteHoly cow Venus! I love love love it! And the fabric is so incredible! I wonder if it could be modified (the pattern) for a little boy? Girl stuff is so cute!
ReplyDeleteYou can totally make this for your boys. The actual cover page for the pattern has a boy wearing the pea coat. I think it will look sah-weet in tweed...
DeleteIt is just one darling coat. All the kids out there better look out! :)
