Back to the Bog with Shirley Adams Sewing Connection

Update a 4000 year old Patternless Coat pattern with the latest fashion trends. Fold, cut and stitch your coat or jacket and learn proper finishing methods. You will wonder why you haven't made more of these!

Thank you for continuing to post this show!! This was always one of my favourite episodes. Over the years has helped me make a few things for my kids!

Bog coat for children would be a perfect bathrobe for chilly nights. A self belt or a zip or buttons with loops or big snaps or even hook and loop could be used. Quilted fabric, fleece, velour, even a sweaterknit or french terry! Matching slippers!! My mind is reeling with ideas! Thank you Shirley!

Inspiring, intriguing, and very well presented! THANK YOU !

[@SewingConnection]

Thank you! Isn't that "fold coat" a fun idea? Shirley made a point of practicing all of her designs with "ugly" fabrics.

Do you have her original bog pattern programme that she refers to in this recording? Trying to find it...

[@SewingConnection]

I apologize for my rudeness in the late response! This is the original Bog Pattern program. On our website, sewingconnection.com, Shirley has a downloadable pdf for the Patternless Coat, which is the same construction and design. Again, I am very sorry for my lapse in response.
