Green Wool Hooded Coat

 

This gorgeous deep green fabric was another give by my friend's mother, Ana. There was 3 m of pure wool, so I decided to make a big, long, hooded coat to use it all. 

I used an old pattern of mine, a hackering of a hacker of a trench coat from Aldrich's book. 

I wanted to add a hood to the double breasted bodice, so I bought a 5 € add on to a comercial coat pattern, and I adapted it to my bodice. 

I had to make some major modification in the back base of the hood, but when finished and lined, it was all great. 

I used a gorgeous green cupro lining, some brass button and a long beld of the same fabric.
