When I was home a few weeks ago, my mom got a new dress coat. It was high time, since I'm pretty sure she'd had the last one since I was born, or at least very small. I'm 28.
I'd seen this one, and knew I wanted to copy the idea.
Here I am, modeling this totally awesome coat:
I know, right? I should have just left it as a coat.
It really was an easy project. I just cut a panel of the coat, added some darts here and there, a high waistband, a zipper, and then, of course, a bow.
I even used the existing lining. Here she is:
Perfect for church!

super-cute! and the "before" pictures make it all the better.
Some day I want to be able to whip out projects without a pattern like that. Great job.
Never realized quite how bad that coat was looking. At one time it did look good.....
so, so cute! & it looks great with that top!
