@Lizzy777 , thank you! I hadn't seen that review, only the one on Pattern Review. It looks as if it will be really helpful if I decide to go ahead with this project. Firstly, I must check to see if I have enough fabric...
The fabric I have in mind is a Twill weight, but not sure of the composition.
This will be only the second coat I have made, so I will have to put my big girl knickers on to tackle it. My Pauline Alice Coat was a huge learning curve, and a huge time investment, but oh so worth it.
I don't even know why I'm dilly dallying - I really need a raincoat!
Thank you all so much for your comments, it helps to move the project along - or not!
Jessie
