Navy Wool and Brown Real Leather Woman’s Custom Jacket

A navy wool cashmere jacket coat with brown real leather with gold buttons for Notre Dame. Bespoke custom tailoring Worn with Ukrainian hand embroidered blouse

Here is a project from ear­li­er this year. It’s anoth­er wool jack­et like my pre­vi­ous jack­ets. The jack­et is 100% navy wool with Eng­lish ray­on lin­ing and real gen­uine (Made in Chica­go) leather cuffs. I love this jack­et and plan to make many more! The lapels and waist pleats make the jack­et very flat­ter­ing and chic. I think the cur­rent but­tons will even­tu­al­ly be replaced with new but­tons that have more...

Part 1 Piccolas by Anagrassia’s “Frontier” Fall Collection: The Kid’s Sports Jacket

Handmade High End Designer Wool Cashmere Tailored Cape Coat Jacket & Leather with Plaid Tartan Skirts Dresses with Ukrainian hand embroidered couture blouses

It’s offi­cial­ly fall in North­ern Indi­ana. Our warm sum­mer nights have tran­si­tioned into crisp cool days. The leaves have lost their vibrant greens and tak­en on a myr­i­ad of amber, gold­en and crim­son hues. A few remain, cling­ing to trees, but most are blan­ket­ing the ground where they’ve fall­en, just wait­ing for an eager child to rake them into piles for jumping. And right down the street, in a shop...

Burdastyle Wool Navy High Neck Cape with Gold Irish Buttons

Handmade Anagrassia long Navy Wool Tailored Cape Coat Jacket with high collar and gold irish buttons. Notre dame football tailgates. Burdastyle sewing pattern.

Here is anoth­er adult cape I made this season. This cape was made with 100% wool and gold Irish buttons. I used Bur­dastyle’s 9/2015 #115 sewing pattern. The only change I made to the pat­tern were the place­ments of buttons/buttonholes. I also hand-stitched all the edges/hems of the cloak, instead of adding piping/bias tape trim. This cape is very warm and per­fect for Notre Dame foot­ball tail­gates & games in the fall!...

Tan Wool Cashmere Tailored Cape with Lapels & Collar

Handmade Anagrassia Tan Camel Beige Champagne Wool Cashmere Tailored Cape Coat Jacket with beautiful English Rayon. Created with pockets, lapels, slit & collar

This fall & hol­i­day was the sea­son of capes! I made lots of them!  (I will post more pho­tos of capes on the blog soon.) Here is one of the adults capes, which I made for my sis­ter. She chose the Bur­dastyle pat­tern (8/2014 #124) and tan (almost cham­pagne) wool cashmere. It’s a tai­lored cape, so I used bespoke tai­lor­ing tech­niques for the lapels. The com­bi­na­tion of soft, thick, and (some­what)...
