Complete with paisley lining
and handmade ceramic buttons from dotterypottery on Folksy. They were a bit lighter in colour than they looked on the website, but they look just fab and look at how they arrived complete with a little thankyou card:
I love buying handmade!
I had to finish it for today as it was my Grandmother's funeral and I didn't want to go wearing my camping coat. Nanny always wore high heels and a hat whenever she went out, so I couldn't turn up to see her off in any shabby old thing. I think she'd have been pleased.

Wow - what an amazing coat! I'm so glad that you like the buttons.
Hi Tammy. Sorry to hear about the lurgy. Our family have had a visitation too but mine was only mild thank goodness. Love the coat and those great buttons. I tried to make a coat once but it is harder than you think. I decided to leave it to the experts after that but yours is great. Glad to hear you had some luck at the craft fair. Liked the comment about Hinckley..lol. The linocut is really nice and graphic. Have a good week.
That looks a quality coat - yes I think your Grandmother would have been pleased. Well done for finishing it -I've got so many unfinished projects now - look forward to seeing you wearing it soon - it looks like a really good shape! xx
Hey girlie, your coat looks fabulous. xx
