My mind is such a melting pot of ideas that it can often be difficult to remember what came first. I know this coat was influenced by the following:
- Seeing short versions of the Talea coat by other Burdastyle members.
- Needing an intermediate jacket for autumn.
My obsession with cheap ikea fleece throws and their ease of sewing. - Loving smart red coats.
- Wanting an extra large hood.
Oh, and some really cute vintage buttons and a secondhand cotton vest I bought whilst in Canberra.
Ok...now, this jacket has my name all over it!!
ReplyDeleteI'm so sad I'm never gonna be able to do this!
Hey! So I am super into sewing, and I have been looking all over for a jacket like this, but they're too expensive. Do you have patterns you used? Or could you explain how you did it? :) Thanks, Desiree!
