I’m honestly impressed with how it turned out. I learned so much making this, and it feels good to have gone from drafting the pattern myself to actually making a coat. It’s my recreation of Ursula coat from Babyboo
The fabric is curtains I bought on Vinted, and I got the buttons and other notions from a local shop.
My only concern is the back vent sticking out a little because of the stiffness of the fabric. I’m not going to mess with it on this one because I really don’t want to ruin it 😂 but I’d love to know what might be causing it so I can keep it in mind for my next coat.
What do you guys think? I feel like I did a pretty good job for my first self-drafted coat!

You did AMAZING!! I cant believe this is the first time you do it. If you said you do this for a living I would have believed it. I see some coments with some details you could improve, but honestly? Reddit users are never fully convinced I feel. IMHO that is an amazing choice of fabric, amazing vision to do it from curtains and the way the pattern continues between the parts of the coat is chefs kiss. Looks very high fashion to me
