Sew a Best Bog Coat with Vicki Halliday

Bog Coat? Ok, hear me out.

The Bog Coat is believed to have been discovered on the body of a 2000 year old person, preserved in the low-oxygen environment of a Danish peat bog. While there’s not much evidence of that actual bog coat, there is plenty of evidence of the clever use of materials to create functional garments with little effort & little waste. And that’s what this class is all about. A low-waste pattern with a few upgrades to make the finished coat look fabulous.

Bring in your fabric & learn how to make the Best Bog Coat with only a few cuts, clever folds & a pair of seams. We’re adding a shawl collar & big pockets to elevate the design & the finish of your coat. There is no bias binding used for the project, instead the seams will be flat felled or overlocked & topstitched…
