Ahhhhh! The Colette event at Grey’s Fabric and Notions was so much fun! I loved the variety and diversity of the sewists who were there, the staff at Grey’s was friendly and helpful, and Sarai of Colette was super sweet and had a great sense of humor. It was a wonderful experience, and I am so glad I went.
I did a little shopping, but with fabric like this…
…who could resist? And, I am happy to say I brought home a Colette pattern: the Lady Grey, a trench-like coat with a huge lapel. Perfect for balancing out those with proportionally wider hips! I love Colette’s sizing system; somehow, I am only an 18, which means I can make a muslin from the pattern as-is. Yay! No pre-sewing pattern alterations. I look forward to sharing more about this pattern, as I am going to begin work on it right away. Baby needs a new coat!
