I just finished a coat for my husband. It was a Kwik Sew pattern with a zipper, hood, lining, cuffs, and pockets. It turned out pretty good. I made it with black denim on the outside and a plaid flannel on the inside.

Sometimes I find it hard to actually finish a project so I'm pretty pleased with myself.:bg:

That does sound nice. Did it take long? It sounds like the kind of project where you fell like you saved money too because it would cost a ton of money to buy.

It took me about 5 days to finish it. It didn't cost me too much to make it either. I got the pattern on sale and the denim was about $20 and the flannel I had in my stash. I'd like to make a brown corduory one now.
