Cutting Out/ Completing a Cashmere Coat- Video and Pics

Hello Everyone,

Just wanted to share with you a jacket I just cut out and sewed for my daughter. I originally wanted  to use this black cashmere fabric for a sports coat for myself but my daughter won out! I finished it the very next day! Here's a video of me cutting out the jacket pieces. I have a very specific method of cutting out any garment and I wanted to share that with you. Here it is....Also, check out the final coat pics below. The jacket turned out really nice and I know my daughter's going to love it!


Here's the Final Product..... Turned out really nice!


I sent a pic to my daughter and she then decided she wanted a belt. So I've now got to finish the belt, add belt loops and remove a few buttons. Anything for my baby girl:)
Have any of you started your Winter coat sewing yet???? Lastly, don't forget I'm still running my Basic Alteration DVD for 50% off and 25% off for my next upcoming pants DVD. This is an October special so get yours before the deal ends!!!

  1. Your daughter will most definitely love the coat, its fantastic and its cashmere!

    Thanks for the tips its wonderful to learn from an expert, they are appreciated

    I have never sewn a winter coat, but would like to. At the moment I am living in a subtropical climate, and as the 'winters' are quite warm I have never used a coat and therefore have never thought of making one, but maybe one day.

  7. Thanks so much for the video showing your tip - I never thought to do that and actually will now move the stuff I have on the other side of my table so I can easily move around it.
