Yvonnes Diamond Coat

Yvonne, one of our members who is a prolific weaver and an award winning weaver at that, regularly sews with the fabrics she produces.   This time it was a silk/wool coat, with the end bit from a group shawl project.   The pattern had huck diamonds in it, in honour of the guilds diamond anniversary, a couple of years ago.  It is a really lovely jacket.
She told us that she got collar from an old coat her daughter had left at her house years ago.  She cut it off and just sewed it on the new jacket.  It looks perfect!
