While I have no sewing blog and therefor no way to start a sew-along I am of no help, (although I think it is a fantastic idea. In fact, I strongly feel that there should be a rotating sew-along of every Oliver + S pattern, because they are lovely and I love those types of things…) But I do want to say, GO FOR IT! It is a three scissor pattern, but it is so easy. It is just time consuming, just because you have to trace and cut out so many pieces. I was so intimidated by this coat so I put off getting it for too long, but now I have cut and sewn two in one week! The only part that confused me for a minute was the pocket directions. THE POCKET. As in, sew two squares right side together and turn. (truthfully, I was just trying to figure out which way to place the fabric so my hedgehogs wouldn’t end up upside down.) Just be sure to clearly clip all your notches and you are good to go. Take the plunge, it’s worth it!
