Coat Sew Along

I knew I would participate in this Amazing Coat Sew Along that is being hosted by Erica B.  Her coats are always impeccably done.  It appears a great many sewists from all over are participating and I think it will be great fun.

I already have a number of fabrics to choose from but I have not yet made up my mind which piece of fabric or coat pattern I will use.  I do know that I am certainly excited and looking forward to learning some new techniques.  I will probably make up my mind this week which pattern and fabric and make sure I have all other notions that are needed so I can be good to go when the sew along begins.

This will hopefully be the challenge that I complete as I have been wanting to make a new coat for myself for a while.  Living in upstate NY warm outerwear is a must. Hopefully this jump starts the sewing juices and helps me towards completion.

As always, Happy Sewing.  Hope to post a pic of the fabric and pattern later this week.
