Notes The coat looks a bit different from the preview picture. It's much shorter and wider but I also like this length and width. I'm quite satisfied with the front of the coat. But on the back there are horizontal "waves" due to the lining fabric which is probably too stiffy. Or perhaps the main fabric is not thick enough. I sewed on only two buttons and left the third one.

    Thank you for all your nice comments. Sewing a coat is always a challenge for me and takes a lot of time. But when it's finished, I feel even prouder :-)
