Love your coat.  I have a 26 year old tweed coat still in my wardrobe - I bought it when I was a student and it was so much to lay out at the time that I've kept it.  It's seen a lot of wear though and was well worth it.  In fact, I wore it last winter!

I have started a sewing blog!  So exciting - more over here: http://quietvintagesewing.wordpress.com/2011/06/27/refashionista-ma...

 

Thanks Marguerite, coats are expensive arent they?  You don't want to just get a new one every year!  Wow 26 years!  That breaks my record!

The change to the collar really updated this coat!   Nice work

Fantastic re-fashion!  I'm impressed at the change you made to the collar - makes a huge difference.  Love the new length, too.  :-)
