This is what I turned that work in progress from my last post into...now I don't care if we ever have summer, I am ready for it to be fall...I can't wait to bundle Lily up in this little number on a crisp, cold autumn day. The outer fabric is 100% wool and the lining and appliques and pocket are "Andalucia" by Patty Young for Michael Miller.The coat is box pleated front and back and I elasticized the sleeves above the cuffs to keep cold wind out. I used huge sew on snaps so that perhaps Lily can put her coat on herself. And, this is my first sample for my Etsy store fall line. I'm making progress!
Speaking of Etsy...I found these ADORABLE handmade shoes and boots at Wooly Baby's shop
