'70s Triple Play Coats 18" Doll Clothes Pattern

Stylish!

The pattern was easy to follow as directions were simple and easy to understand. I had scraps of faux buckskin with a shearling liner on hand. I cut pattern out just slightly larger to adapt for the thickness of the shearling. I added extra shearling for trim. Except for arms, all seams were on outside and trimmed and sewn down so that just an slight edge of shearling shows. The inside is all shearling!! Tickled pink with outcome!!

This was a great pattern to buy. The directions were very well written and easy to follow. I lined the whole inside of the coat and that was the only place that I made my own modification. Instead of using all of the individual pieces for the lining of the skirt area, I made a one piece pattern for the entire thing. It worked very well. I really struggled with the fir trim as I couldn't find black premade trim and bought a piece of fur instead! Never again!! I'll go wherever I need to find it with finished edges!!! Had fur everywhere and wasn't pleased with the finished edge that I had on the coat. Made the coat out of burgundy velvet with black fur and added a black fur hat. The person I was sewing for was VERY PLEASED with the result!
