Is there a Tweed Fairy?

I found these 2 pieces of fabulous tweed in 2 different thrift shops, both 100% wool in drop dead gorgeous rich colours. Mr C immediately ordered a vest from the one above and the one below is scheduled to make a reversible spring coat for which I've already cut a muslin.

I think after that, I'll be able to declare myself totally adept at matching plaids.

We actually saw some sun during the weekend and I quickly urged my friend to take a snapshot of my freshly dyed purple raincoat. The jury is still out on whether I should change the buttons, but I quite like the result as it is.

Do you know the name of that colour? I never liked it! So yeah! Thanks Dylon!

Nice job!! Love the colour. I often overlook dye as a refashioning technique, but not after this!

I love the new colour. Maybe some clever new buttons would be cool. I am planning to add some new ones to a jacket I want to refashion too.
