Eowyn's Brown Coat
First I have to say that I'm just a beginner. This coat is my first
costume.
I made this coat out of light brown wool. The fur on the edges is
fake. The coat closing in the front is an invisable zipper, so the buttons
are just put on and is not functional.
The pattern I build it from was a pattern for a simple jacket with the
closing in the front. I found it at
www.neuemodestil.de.
This
was not the easiest to build. However, the worst thing was to attach
the fur edges. Not a fun fabric to work with at all. The needle
broke at least twice while I was sewing it! Argh! But it worked at last :)
The jewel is actually a belt buckle which is attached to the top of the
zipper.
