It would be sufficient for our winter here but in the USA??? Did you interline it with some insulating fleece or something?<BR/><BR/>Teach your DD to sew!!! Mine just turned 16 and she sews her jeans, and party dresses with minimal help. I help her with muslin and fitting but usually she cannot wait for me to start a piece for her so she will initiate the process. She needs to learn how to install zippers, maybe a couple of small tutorial units would be helpful, I'll have to see.<BR/><BR/>I was wondering if taking the coat to a dry cleaner and having them do a final steam press on the seams wouldn't be easier for you and more permanent.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
