Upcycling, Re-design wool coat and a pillow case.

The last two weeks have I had one main sewing project. The wool coat. Upcycling and redesigning it to become more me and my style.  I am not done yet but here are the process.

The wool coat.
Picking up all seams on the pillow case.
Trying out how it will look.
Needling up the fabric.
Sewed this part.
Sequins… sewed it on my sewing machine and broke 3 sewing needle’s 😆😆😆
Hand stitching the inside of the collar.
Picking up the seam on the coat arm, a bit to short for me.
Hand stitching it during 2 hours April 27th.
Finished the hand stitching on the arm length.

Today’s task will be;

To sew this so approxy 1cm is visible for the eye and the rest covered when it’s not in use.

This last picture is the back side of the wool coat.

I hope I will be able to hand stitch the left arm length part today (April 28th). I haven’t decided if I am going for plain black or plain purple fabric from the pillow case yet.

I will hand stitch the loose decorations on the sholder.  Here are what I did before I went to sleep yesterday (April 27th) ;

One with fabric and the other plain black
Or should I have sequins on the other?

I was thinking to do something on those two too… but I think it’s to much work.
