I had hoped to have this coat done earlier in the fall, but having it done by Thanksgiving is OK. This is made with the DMK Trendy Unisex Pea Coat pattern. Just now looking at the pattern online, I just realized I forgot to attach the wristbands. Will do!
Here is my favorite shot, he can't read so I can get away with this!
The outside is pinwale corduroy, the inside lining is this great Alexander Henry dragon print. I added a little pocket inside for his "guys".
I just love it when I find good sewing patterns for boys!

I need to find something cool to make for his oldest brother. It's more challenging to make something he will wear in a men's size!

This coat is so cool!! And your model is dashing! This inspires me to make something for a boy. So much of my sewing is for girls, I have 2 daughters, that I neglect the fun things I could make for a little guy.
ReplyDelete:)
That coat is absolutely awesome!
ReplyDeleteThanks for all the nice comments!! I'd love to see some more versions of this coat. I also have the DMK warm hoodie pattern I need to try out. The list of things to sew never gets any smaller does it?!

Great blog! Is your theme custom made or did you download it from somewhere?

Hello! I realize this is somewhat off-topic but I had to ask.
ReplyDeleteDoes managing a well-established blog like yours take a massive amount work?
I'm brand new to operating a blog but I do write in my journal everyday. I'd like
to start a blog so I can easily share my own experience and thoughts online.
Please let me know if you have any kind of ideas or tips for new aspiring blog
owners. Appreciate it!
