Dolly now has a lovely, warm coat for a cold, Melbourne winter. The pattern is from the kinder wardrobe pattern for kinder girls and boys by the lovely Jodie of Ric Rac. I used a built in embroidery pattern on my machine to do the lovely flower edging. I really need to make more use of those patterns. I used some Gütermann upholstery thread, so it stands out just a little more than it would if I just used normal thread.
She looks great :) Love the heavier thread too, good idea. My machine has a heap of stuff I never use; perhaps I should.
ReplyDeleteHey Carmel, love, love love, this coat. Gorgeous colours with the embroidery and a sweet little collar too.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lucky Dolly.......she definitely needs it in this weather.
I was in Melbourne last weekend and brrrr was it cold.
