A blog born from the desire for a winter coat in a color other than black. With limited sewing experience and no knowledge of Japanese I've worked through all the patterns in Ryuichiro Shimazaki's book on men's coats. If I can do it, anyone can! But the challenges continue. Join me as I continue to explore the world of menswear. I AM my own luxury brand!

Muslin #2....as good as it gets
Here are pics of the final fitting muslin. Considering that I had never altered a pattern before, I'm pleased with the result. It's come a long way from the first straightjacket, and it truly feels like it's time to be moving on. The next step will be to prepare the wool. Get ready for the London Shrunk Method.
