winter coat patterns?

    winter coat patterns?
    on: May 29, 2009, 07:28:57 AM
    Hi everyone,
    I'm new to the forum. Wanted assistance in finding a woman's knee length winter coat pattern. (I know - who wants to think about winter when June is right around the corner?). My mother-in-law gave me some beautiful Harris Tweed and I have enough fabric to make a coat for me and ten of my best friends, so yardage is not a problem. Picture of fabric here: http://sundaystitchin.blogspot.com/2009/05/fall-garment-planning.html

    I'm terrible at finding suitable clothing patterns, so I'm taking any recommendations.
    Thanks,
    Rebecca

      Oh, lucky lady! That fabric is beautiful.

      I haven't sewn this yet, but I've been sitting on this Built By Wendy coat pattern for ages. I think it'd be great in that tweed.
