Hello Refashion Co-op. I had a coat that wasn't really warm. What could I do with a thin coat? I made a skirt.
I cut the top of the coat off.
I stitched the coat/skirt closed in front. I finished the waist and folded the cut edge in. I tucked the lining in when I was sewing the waist so it is all closed up inside too. The lining is like a built in slip.
I used a sew-on snap that came with the coat to close the waistband.
I was happy with how the skit turned out.
Thanks or reading along, for more pictures and details go to I Can Work With That.
