|SEW WITH ME!| BurdaStyle coat 08/2016 #116
In this video, part 1, I talk about my fabric choice and also give a step-by-step breakdown for sewing the outer coat up until the attachment of the facing.
About BurdaStyle coat 116:
“This multi-faceted classic includes a full-length shawl collar and deep set-in sleeves. It is a great choice for every closet. The open front comes together with the tying belt that allows it to be worn close to the body, loosely drawn or fully open.”
Hope you’ll like the video and are encouraged to sew your own!

Hi Chie! I came across your blog while oddly googling snorkeling in Guam. When I read that all the outfits you wore, you made yourself, I had to see more. You make me want to learn how to use that sewing machine I bought and never learned how to use. I look forward to reading more. 🙂 From San Francisco. xo
