How to make a Yellow Coat

Find a regular 100% wool blanket (preferably not off your own bed...TradeMe is a better option!)

Track down a sari for the lining - again, you can find just about anything and everything on TradeMe...
Cut them up and sew them together and voila!  For the gloomy grey days in winter, this is my own bit of sunshine :)

Wow - thats fabulous! I seem to purchase bland coats (I am sure my idea is that they will "go with everything") but bright coats are really so cheery.

Fantastic. I love a bit of up marketing of an op item. Well done you!
