My first blog entry!
I just finished a new fall coat using Diane Ericson’s Heartfelt Coat Pattern. I hot water machine washed the wool yardage to felt the fibers together. After that I worked with the fabric patterning in order to build yardage that would enhance with the coat pattern. The wool is butted together and held with a decorative stitch. I actually started this 5 years ago and put it in a basket because it was just too big of a project.
I wore it on Saturday night and it was a success!

This coat was on full display Saturday night, as well it should be…Love this piece 🙂
Wonderful coat.
Congratulations! It’s just incredible. And welcome to DOL!
Oh.my.goodness. That coat is absolutely fabulous. I saw it on Diane’s blog and wondered who the talented sewist was. What kind of yardage did you use?. It seems to have really felted well.
It is mostly made of plain wool coating (at least 90% wool), but there are some vintage scraps in there too. Whatever I could find to get that many colors! I’ll post a close up soon.
Well of course I want to follow your blog of beautiful things! Gorgeous design Wendy!
It was a treat to wrap myself in for a moment! Beautiful lines.
Congrats Wendy on your first blog, and on your beautiful coat of many colors!
good job ……….it’s beautiful
Just gorgeous!!!!
