I thought I would make a new thread quickly seeing that the first one is nearly full

Indeed, dillite

The JOY OF POSSESSION!

Halsall

Will peruse that at my leisure . . .

Agree Riccardo was robbed - but not as obviously as last week. I like ALL of them this time!

Wow this will be interesting

A coat! It's on my dream do list.

That blue tartan looks very itchy

Ooh I love a coat! Wouldn't dare make one though.

No no no no no. Those grey inserts are awful.

Oh yes.

Had a quick look *Halsall^ - very beautiful, but costumer per metre than I spent on my whole wardrobe last year.

Riccardo's looks exciting.

I had a Harris tweed swing coat as part of my school uniform. It was very itchy, impossibly heavy when wet, and heartbreakingly expensive. My poor parents.

Gosh, a coat is bloody complicated. Imagine making one in a few hours...eeek!

I've made a coat, it took me weeks. I could never do it in 5 hours.

BitOfFun

😂

I like swing coats. I have had one for 20+ years - it still looks fab and it still fits because of the amazing swing shape/

I don't like Janet's . . . .

Janet 😬😬 I think this might be her last hoorah

I think Janet might be in a bit of trouble here

Oh, you clever thing, FrenchFancy!

Hmm not keen on Janet’s.

Janet's looks very dangerous and you could see the disapproval on Patrick's face.

Schaden yes, they're, erm, not cheap .....one can but dream, though. My budget is more at the eBay end

Beautiful shade of red

I can never get a coat that fits, last one I bought it cost me nearly as much in alterations, getting the sleeves chopped & about eight foot cut of the length.

Leah is so anal that she works herself up in a frenzy and then becomes highly annoying. I sure as hell wouldn't want to have her as my colleague.

I made a jacket last year...

Lined sleeves, bound seams...
