Last days I decided to start sewing a coat with the corduroy I bought a long long time ago. I've been feeling a lot crafty lately!
The pattern is from ONS 6. I did a little modification and made a melty chocolate detail on the hearts' decoration. The hearts aren't pockets because it would look hella ugly and distorted with things inside - considering the flexible and soft fabric-, plus we have bags for that purpose.
I had to dye the lace considering there's no place I can possibly find this lace color here. In the end, it matches the melty detail. I was so happy I could finish this fabric, and almost finish another cotton fabric I had here that I used as lining. I also finished some threads and could use all these buttons that were sitting in my sewing box forever.
I think it matches my chocolate prints so well! I even added the Angelic Pretty's Chess Chocolate chest bow on it, and it looks amazing!
I did this coat larger on purpose - in the cold weather I tend to wear like, four warm tops under my main coat, so it needs room for all that stuff.
I'm very happy with the result! I'm thinking about sewing more next days - my plans include making a pair of frilly bloomers! Let's see if I stay motivated until then lol.
