I can't tell you how impressed I am with your sewing skills to create such a wonderful coat and especially to make so many alterations and THEN have it fit so well. You have awesome skills! The colors for Bonnie Hunter's new mystery quilt are right up my alley (except maybe I'd lean a little more toward blue than aqua/turquoise) and I actually have those fabrics in stacks but I can't yet commit to this quilt just now. I'll watch the progress and maybe make one later.Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12136584654825212359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6104148299938856670.post-58739455874772096662017-11-10T19:42:00.294-05:002017-11-10T19:42:00.294-05:00WOW the pirate coat!!!!
