A Spring Coat

For spring weather!! It's been drippy the last two days and I finally got around to making myself something I've been planning on for months. Once again I officially fail at taking before pictures. I even thought of it, I was ripping apart the inside seams and it was still in tact, I was just too... erm... lazy. But if your imagination is good, think of a large, long, shoulder-padded men's formal coat with two buttons very low at the waist. Add a seam ripper, scissors, my dressform, a few pins, and the Complete Symphonic Recording of Les Miserables.

And here's a shot of this baby in action!

I am probably far too pleased with myself. It fits perfectly, and, being 100% wool, it is warm enough to wear in 30 degree + weather. I love spring clothes!
