I've finished the coat!
I chose these buttons from my stash as I thought they picked out the grey tones in the fur collar.
The lining is black satin (here's the coat inside out)
The buttons, lining and fabric came from my stash. The wool fabric was leftover from an unlined jacket I made for SWAP 2009. I did need to buy shoulder pads and fray check. The sleeve heads were made with a scrap of batting leftover from my Rainbow Quilt.
The pattern is Simplicity 4003 View B lengthened by 6 inches.
