Tiddly Winks 0 Posted May 5, 2010 Horrrah, I am almost finished with my brand new beige colored coat. I have been working on it since Christmas, and all that's left is a little hand sewing and the buttons. I am so happy, and given the weather here lately, maybe I can wear it a couple of times before it gets warm. I will post a photo when I get completely finished. I am so proud of it.

myladyyawo 0 Posted May 6, 2010 Yvette, I cannot wait to see a picture! I wish I would be talented enough to make my own clothing, In school I choose the elective of metal working because I couldn't sew. That is a wonderful talent that you can, I'm sure it will be amazing on you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tiddly Winks 0 Posted May 7, 2010 I am probably going to wear it tonight. We have a performance here in town with the choir, and it's really unseasonably cold here. Getting down to 2 degrees C at night. I wish the warm weather would come back, but since it isn't, I will wear my new coat tonight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tiddly Winks 0 Posted May 8, 2010 It was around 8°C here yesterday. It's unseasonably cold for May. I did wear the coat to the performance though. We were singing for a celebration of new German Citizens in our town. The mayor was there, and he gave a speech and in between all that, we did some songs.
