One of my big spring ideas was to make myself a warm coat in a spring color. There comes a point in late february or early march where I am tired of winter colors and desperately want spring, but the weather does not oblige. I have enough colorful and pastel cashmere sweaters aand scarves to get me through this indoors, but all of my spring jackets are way too light to wear on a 40 degree day. Thus this coat. Mint green wool boucle, hits just below the knee, fully lined in pink satin. 3/4 length sleeves to be worn with long pink gloves as shown. Fabulous!

This photo is of the coat in progress. Its now finished and I had some action shots, but certain people who shall remain nameless apparently deleted all the photos from my digital camera before I got a chance to upload them. I'll get some more.
