Notes	The design: Overall a good design, but the picture is misleading. This pattern is actually for a 3/4 sleeve coat. The length is also longer than pictured. Compare to another pattern for help. My alterations: I decided to lengthen the sleeves to full length (I added 7.5 inches). I used the sleeve lining pattern for the top, then made a new cuff pattern similar to the original style. I also lowered the hemline.

Lekala slee es are always short... I oder the patterns with 'elongated sleeves' and I still have to add a whopping 12 cm (and no, I am not an orang oetan...) But the coat looks great on you. Well done!
