Quick Coat Improvement


My husband bought this cute duffel coat for our daughter in the winter. She loves it and has worn it almost daily. However, the jute fastenings had begun to wear through and needed replacing.

While in London a couple of weekends ago I saw and bought some polka dot ribbon which matched the lining of the coat. Today I finally got around to sewing them on. I think they look quite nice. not sure how long they'll last though.

  7. Breathing new life into a garment with the simplest of touches - marvellous. Thanks for the award I'll accept officially on my blog in next few days but have only just received a couple so hope you don't mind if I don't pass it on
