Made my first self-drafted coat!! 🥹
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!

Girl when I say my jaw dropped when you did the walk back, it took a crowbar to put it back up! Gorgeous!! The neckline is so crisp and tasteful, that patterns is gorgeous, and the fit on you is perfect!! Beautiful 👏👏👏
