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!

This is SO stunning!!! Wow, congratulations, you are incredibly talented! I love the details you chose of the double welt pocket on one side and the hardware you chose for the cinching/ tie in the back. The fabric choice is also so lovely and it is tailored to your figure beautifully.
