Still on the fence about fabric ... twill is more to my budget, but wool would be more useful, as I'm thinking a maroon or red color so I can wear this to my son's marching band activities (their colors are red and black, and I have a black wool coat). This may end up being my Christmas present, lol.Janhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18066758660094361427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3259455441759015869.post-35195852101997928342010-08-22T02:53:30.533-04:002010-08-22T02:53:30.533-04:00Just ordered mine as well!

I have ordered my pattern but now I'm trying to find fabric. I'm normally really conservative but I want this coat to be really fun so I was thinking of making it in black hi low corduroy (for the conservative part of me) with a bright Pink/fuchsia silk linking (for fun, I LOVE pinks). Anyone have suggestions of a good place to purchase this fabric?Miss Marker's Quilts/Margaret Leuwen Quiltinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02599649951551801247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3259455441759015869.post-10615701736061323862010-08-21T01:35:33.028-04:002010-08-21T01:35:33.028-04:00How wonderful.

I'm new to the online fabric shopping market (and unfortunately all we have around here is JoAnn's) so any help is appreciated! <br /><br />I'd love to make a white coat just like the modeled version!<br /><br />Also, apart from the actual fabric for the project, I'm assuming I'll need a muslin?
