Another couple items that were crossed off my sewing list in February were some lightweight spring coats for the girls. I used the Uptown Girl coat pattern which I've had for many years and have finally made! I think if I were to make it again, I might use a solid fabric, or something simpler (like polka dots). When I look at these photos of the girls in their patterned coats and patterned skirts, it's a big of overload! But, I do especially like the fabric I used for Greta's coat. I kind of wish I had used it for Holly's coat because I'm not 100% on the pink flower medallion fabric. I didn't want to be spending a fortune on the materials for the coat so I had to compromise. And it turned out just fine. Holly likes it and is willing to wear it!
