Rumba Rue Posted February 11, 2005 Posted February 11, 2005 Ok I finally finished the coat I had two friends fighting over who was going to get it. The material is a lightweight brocade with a matching lining, complete and useful pockets. Since the gal I decided that should have it is a wee bit smaller than me in height (I'm 5'3"), it will be perfect for her frame. The length of the coat isn't as long as some, because I was making it for a woman. I had a little bit of left over trim and made a small matching pouch to go with it (something I do a lot for people- no charge), using some of the black cotton velvet I used in the front. I have 5 different frock coat pattern designs, so far I've used three to make three different kind of coats. In a way I like this, it makes the coat more individual to the wearer and doesn't look like a clone of others. Frock coat Rumba Rue **Cecile B. DeMille wannabe**
