That coat is amazing! Rock Star quality 🤩

Normally I don’t comment this much, but here I have to. This jacket is so cute and suits you so well, this blanket waited for you I‘m sure ! Keep up your great thrift flips!

@ArlenePMCM Год назад

Oh my goodness, that's a fabulous coat! I love your style and color esthetics on all of your garments. Super cool blanket coat!

Absolutely darling coat! I made a long robe from a machine quilted blanket. The sleeves are super long so I can unroll them to warm my hands. Recently the long sleeves became useful as oven mits. LOL I'm almost sad to see summer coming.

@anneyoung1011 2 года назад

Looks fantastic.

@ashextraordinaire 2 года назад

The welt pockets are AMAZING, and that coat is gorgeous! Gotta love an old Brother. I'm still sewing on my super-basic LS-2125 (not even the LS-2125i) from 20 years ago, and I'm impressed with how well it's still running. In any case, you should be SO PROUD of this coat!!!

@TriBeccaDesigns 2 года назад

I agree and I've been telling people for years that blankets make beautiful coats. I recently uploaded a tutorial on my channel showing how I made a spring jacket out of quilted pillowcases. Upcycling is loads of fun.

@dacrayzblaze1 2 года назад

For fabric this thick, I would recommend a walking foot! quilters usually go through so many layers so walking foot is great for feeing fabric thru your machine evenly

@amierichan1428 2 года назад

Agree with The Aussie Family-- a walking foot reduces even further the space between the presser foot and the fabric. There are machines which allow you to raise the presser foot before beginning to sew, such as the Husqvarna Vikings and the Janomes.

This is a beautiful jacket, Janelle. I'm glad you left the front pickets off, less is more. There is going to be a lot of people wishing they had your beautiful jacket. 😍 I like your gingham circular pillow on your bed. Could you please post a video on how you can make one?

@RoseryApparel 2 года назад

Aw thank you so much! I’ve shared a tutorial for the gingham pillow here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-gS3Nq9FBeq0.html 😊

I love it 🥰 I love all the colours you pick for your clothes. Thank you for your lovely calm helpful videos. My Mum was a sewer and worked from home but it was chaotic and she earned very little money, making coats quickly on a tight schedule. Oh how I would love to go back and have her teach me all her skills. I watch your videos and dream I could make my own, yet I still procrastinate as I know I will get stuck.

@artemishurt6862 2 года назад

I am FLOORED by the result - and how you were able to successfully do it! Whenever those thick layers of fabric were going through the sewing machine, I admit I was afraid to see the needle break in half (and seeing the machine moving back and forth wasn't helping with that). Absolutely be proud of what you did, this was a major project and the coat is simply wonderful

@maxinehayes5570 2 года назад

Wow the coat looks amazing you are so talented

@rubyglinda 2 года назад

I adore the coat and I definitely have those feelings about linings but you made me want to try it out. Apart from the coat project, the funniest thing is how amazed I am about that brush trick that you did with the erasable marker. I'm mind blown with that simplest thing. Thanks! xx

@nataliedavies69 2 года назад

Wow the coat turned out SO CUTE! I have to say you make everything look so easy but I have no doubt sewing through all that fabric and keeping everything so neat takes considerable expertise! I think YOUR coat will inspire many, many other makes 😍

@carlygreen8605 2 года назад

I haven't even finished watching yet but just wanted to pause and comment... this is by far my favourite thing you've ever made!! I almost felt a bit emotional watching it- stuff like this is why it's so rewarding to sew. The only time you'd ever see a coat this beautiful, original and well made would be of it was made by a designer for hundreds of pounds. Clothes like this are usually way out of most people's reach, but if you can see then you can have almost any type of clothing you like an i love it so much. Honestly this is so so lovely and congratulations on now having an amazing coat!!! Im horrendously jealous 😅

@nachodan86 2 месяца назад

I’ve had this coat pattern for a couple of years but have only just made myself a blanket coat, seeing you go through the steps helped me so much as I changed the collar shape too after seeing you do it and had some trouble understanding the written instructions for sewing it all together. Wish I could find a blanket like yours for my next coat, looks so cool!

The coat turned out beautiful 😍 yeah I would have made it 10-12 inches longer 🥰 but I was a teenager in the 60's-70's so I like midi length coats 😂 Excellent job of sewing that thick fabric 😍

You are so incredibly creative and I personally love the length. I Think if it was any longer, it wouldn't look like a coat, it would look more like a spruced up snuggie. lol! this and your rain coat are so inspirational! Can't wait to get a bit more skill under my belt to try this myself. ❤
