Making a Coat out of a Comforter | Thrift Flip/Upcycle
In today's video I'm sharing how I made coat out of a comforter set from Goodwill. I used a pattern to make the gunslinger coat. Patterns are linked below and are available for purchase from the seller. DIY your clothes by thrifting inexpensive materials and make whatever you want! I made the gunslinger vest/waistcoat out of part of the comforter and part of the matching pillow case. The coat is not meant to close in the front so I thought the vest might be a good option to add to the coat for additional coverage at times. I modified portions of the vest as well as the coat.
For the coat:
*shortened the collar
*modified the cuffs slightly
*did not add a lining so that changed how I added the collar and the lapels
Thanks for watching! 💕

    I often wear nice flowy dresses or skirts. but it only takes a gust of wind and my dress or skirt starts blowing up high like marilyn Monroe which can be very embarrassing if Im are not quick enough with my hands to hold it down. Wind is not a good friend to most of my outfits unfortunately, But Thank goodness for slips which have protected my modesty on many occasions on those windy days xxx 🌬🌬🌬👗👗

  • @lisacapri4837
    @lisacapri4837 24 дні тому

    Love this! I’ve done a few like this myself, but I’m curious, how tall are you? Whenever I’ve done this I find that sometimes the skirt is a little too short in the back and I’m only 5 feet tall. Maybe it’s the size of my rear - lol! But just wondering if this was a very large circular tablecloth or not.

  • @lisacapri4837
    @lisacapri4837 24 дні тому

    I could never have done what you did without my year in a dressmakers studio. There, I also learned: after sewing you press every seam. With the kind of skirt you have sewn, I’d have pressed the centre seams open and serged each edge separately to give the material more flow. With the waistband you could try to put the excess bit go under and have the top flush with the edge of the centre.
