Ok, I know I have been MIA from the Trench Sew Along, but I’ve been very distracted with my TNT project at Sew A Beginner. But I received an email from Simplicity last night about their new fall patterns and I meandered over there to peruse the new selection. And lo and behold, but what did I see?
Why, S2311, of course. I love the short version with the wide lapels in camel on the left hand side of the pattern envelope. What do you think? Wouldn’t it be perfect for my imperial purple wool???
And the bonus is that this pattern is fully lined. FULLY LINED!!!! I don’t have to do mental gymnastics to make this coat.
I’m so excited!
Happy sewing everyone!
I love that! And already being fully lined is KEY.
Lovely, the purple wool will look great!
Yum! Excellent choices!
I think either that or the Lady Grey pattern would be perfect for your purple wool. 🙂 Very cute. 🙂
Perfect – they even have one in purple on the pattern envelope! Can’t wait to see it!
Looks good to me but like CGCouture I also think the Lady Grey would be nice too.
I would like to participate in this sew-along. This will inspire me to sew a good fitting coat once and for all.
