Coat - burda 6772!

Hello!

I have made the coat using burda 6772 pattern. It was the first time to make the coat and I spent 1 week for it!

I have already worn it in Germany for visiting the show. :-) I have received so many compliments. :-D

My first plan was to use the red buttons from sewing shop(or charity shop). However I have decided to make button using the same fabric.
It's quite easy if you use 'Self-Cover Buttons' from craft or sewing shop. ;-)

This fabric, I have bough a year ago... my first plan was for making a skirt. But.. somehow I have changed my minds - to make a coat. It was a big challenge for me.

The problem is I had only 3 meters of this fabric. So I had not so many choices.
This pattern, burda 6772 says it requires 3.10 meters...for my size.

If I choose the 'B', it requires 3.4 meters.. Then I thought I could go for 'A' and modify the pattern for my size as 'petit'.. means I have to cut the pattern for shorter.
It works! I have spent all fabric - no regret!

Have a nice day,
Yasuko
