A great smart coat

This is a great introduction to formal coat making.

The instructions are really clear and I love the clean lines of this pattern.

I made mine in a reasonably heavyweight coating fabric and I forgot how heavy coats are to move around on a sewing machine.

I love the style lines on this coat pattern. I love how the pockets are hidden in the horizontal mid seam.

I made a narrow shoulder allowance as I find that coats can sometimes be a bit boxy on me and it worked out really well.

Would definitely recommend this pattern!
