#WeekendSewingClub holiday special… this is the face of a woman thinking “fuck you I won”.

I jettisoned the coat I started last week (energy too scarce to waste on a project that doesn’t excite me), and redirected attention to the water-resistant, bonded houndstooth wool, but with a ‘simple’ cape pattern (new look, N6768).

It was like sewing a tarpaulin. Should have been doable in two days, but took 5. My hands are TRASHED. I love the result. #sewing #tailoring #iMadeItMyself #ItHasPockets

Oh my gosh it looks GORGEOUS!! Sorry about your hands.
What an amazing, fabulous garment!

It's quite excellent, especially in a region where you are likely to get rained on regularly. I can't imagine the texture for constructing it, though! Well-done.
