- The ones you make out of items that are just not fashionable anymore the way they are.
- The ones you make with garments that don't fit anymore (or that need mending...).
I slit it open along the sides and added a stripe of black wool fabric...
The part that took longest for this project was getting up the courage to do it! But it was well worth it and turned out just the way I hoped it would ...for more pictures, please come visit my blog: Of Dreams and Seams.
All the best to you fellow re-fashionistas out there!

I want that coat!! :)
This REALLY excites me as I have a 'too tight' coat which is Italian cream wool and I adore it... and cannot fit it! I'm going to have another look at it and see if I can take your idea on! Thank you so much and yours is delightful!
It was a great coat before and you have made it unique and fabulous. Very professional sewing job! It looks perfect.

Oh WOW.. I absolutely LOVE this.. SO beautiful... Very chic..;))
This is fantastic! Thanks for the inspiration! I have a too snug coat, and I now know what to do!
Looks Terrific!! That's my favorite way of re-sizing, but I haven't been brave enough to try it with a coat. Thanks to your inspiration, I think I'll go for it!
This is AMAZING!!!! I've been needing to do this to a jacket that I love that's too small now. You did a fantastic job, it looks so much more stylish now.
nicely done!
