Great Winter Coat
What fun I had sewing this coat this morning. That’s right… it was only a morning project.
The fabric is a sherpa backed suede which is 60″ wide. All it took to make this coat was a couple of yards of fabric, Kwik Sew pattern 3358, the walking foot on my machine and a few hours. This pattern was designed for this fabric, so it was very easy.
I washed the fabric before I cut out the pattern. After cutting, I washed the pieces again so that there would not be any “fuzz”.
We have carried this fabric for several years, but it hasn’t been cold enough for a good warm coat. We made some great vests from these fabrics, but this year might just be the year for that coat.
These photos will give you an idea of the color choices we have. Along with these colors, we also have black suede with a black sherpa backing, brown suede with a brown sherpa backing, and natural with natural sherpa backing.
These fabrics retail for $29.98 and are completely machine washable. Check out website in the next week and you will find the pattern and fabrics on our website www.creations-online.com Better yet, drop by the shop and “feel” the fabrics.
