I have no self control when it comes to fabric. This was supposed to be my Easter weekend project. Its a full length coat, which I am making in a wide wale camel coloured corduroy. Its a practice for the coat I actually want to make as the corduroy is about an order of magnitude cheaper than the wool or wool blend I actually want to make it out of and the pattern is at the limits of my sewing skills. The collar has turned out pretty well and the waistline is at the right distance from the neck - so far so good. I still have sleeves, lining and buttonholes (eep) to go.
