Sewing A Reversible Fleece Coat |

[@agonleed3841]

My wife would love this. I'm still working on my skills to accomplish this.

[@whiskerbiscuit6209]

You can do it! just break it down into steps and if its tough then walk away and come back when you are ready.

[@sapphirecamui6447]

you can do it! if i were your wife, i would want pockets on both sides and maybe a belt too. just saying. ;) and luckily i'm definitely not your wife ;)

Sweater weather is upon us... I’m sure you’ll do great! If my love made this for me. I’d probably never take it off. Lol 😂 just don’t think too hard about it. Jump in, let love and the inspiration be your guide. That fabric is very forgiving as long as you don’t stretch it while sewing. Using clear thread also helps hide the stitching. If you still don’t feel confident about your stitch work. Best of wishes to you, and your wife.💜

[@darlinaha5882]

The fluffiness of this coat speaks to me and I wish to become one with the fluff 😂💜✨

It's like you made her a hug! 💓💓💓

[@uqiam]

Looks like I’m gonna need to buy some fleece

[@rasheedawilliams4395]

Right...👍. This looks so warm.

[@AlextheENTP]

Let's just do the maths on this, shall we: Extra fluffy coat + Mom seeing it and loving it + sped-up hug + dancing with an excited dog = *CUTENESS OVERLOAD!!!* I once bought my mom a coat for Mothers' Day, and she was so proud of it. Now I'm inspired to actually _make_ one for her. Goals and pressure!

[@Hiyabambi]

Use some scraps and make a belt to cinch it closed

[@taritangeo4948]

If only for warmth, its so fluffy theres no real point to sinch it in for aestetics.

[@Indydi]

"If it doesn't match up perfectly, that's okay. I just end up trimming anything that is sticking out later, and make it work." Love it. Exactly my experience, working with fleece. Also love how you just hack away with full confidence, and it comes out perfect. I wanna be able to do that.

[@cnbash]

Just spent an hour and a half in Joann's🤪🤪🤪...now I've got to go back and get some fleece!!! LOVE this idea!!! Thanks, April!!!

[@coolirpa]

Lol I know the feeling! You're very welcome! :D

[@rachelnation2021]

I could easily spend an entire day in joann's 😂

[@cnbash]

@@rachelnation2021 I was a manager there for several years...I like it much better now, although I sure do miss that discount!!! It's a lot easier not to buy all the remnants, now, though!!!🤪🤪🤪

[@blacksheep9772]

This is the best! LOVE IT. Who doesnt love a big snuggly coat!!??

[@hambeastdelicioso1600]

Your mom is adorable and I think the doggie wants a coat, too!

[@hsg2422]

That picture of you and your mom - how sweet! As a mom I love handmade things from my adult daughters. What a great gift you’ve given her! 💕

[@tiaaaliya80]

I revisit this video when I want to make a coat. I love these types of coats!! So warm and snuggly without a crap ton of pieces to sew!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤

[@tomboyz151]

Lol. "Wubby" fleece has the cutest name! 😂 I love how fluffy this coat is, though! 😍

[@barbaraness4507]

You’re so lucky to have a mom that loves, and will wear what you make her! My mom is rather picky so although she likes what I make she may not like it on her. Lol She has been wearing a skirt I made her a lot which makes me very happy.

[@madamethome5869]

So practical, pretty and not to difficult to make!

[@dee8546]

Why did I start crying while watching this video? Thinking about how sweet you are and how much you and your mom must live each other, thinking about my mom, thinking about Christmas, and the music. Thank you for this video April.

[@kathrynjones848]

That was one of the biggest happiest smiles I’ve ever seen ‼️. What a beautiful and cozy coat‼️. Dood work and Merry Christmas ‼️

[@kscheuerman5378]

I love this fleece coat for your Mom. So comfy and cozy, a coat of my dreams!!!! Seriously, who needs one of those wearable blankets when you can make something like this that is stylish and can be worn at home or anywhere you want to go!!!! April, great design and great work. Thanks for sharing. Take care and God Bless.

[@natmartinez8321]

This looks so comfy and I would love to have one for cold days but where I live I can imagine I would come to loathe it because it would make me miserably hot. It just simply doesn’t get cold enough here to wear it without having a heat stroke. Winter hardly exists here so it would probably never get worn. If I ever move somewhere cold, I will absolutely make one because it just looks so amazing

[@MrsLeBlanc14]

So cute!! Your mom is cute too! She looks like she really enjoyed it 💕💕

[@melissalo3379]

Made this. It looks amazing. I was really scared because fabric was so expensive, but it turned out great. I did try cutting the hood on scrap fabric since that was the most difficult for me to duplicate. Good thing since I had to try couple of times. I did line my pockets with cotton piece and added cotton piece to the backside of fleece to make pockets stronger. Really debated seam tape too, but didn’t. I am new to surging so it was a grand experiment.

[@dwhite-green9133]

Nice to see you with your mother. Wishing both of you well always.

[@GALAXIE262]

Would be really cute with some wooden toggles on the front to hold it closed! Great job as always!

[@treadlegenie]

Thank you so much. I used 2 sherpa lined blankets and made 2 comfy style pull overs! Great video! Really neat your mom was so excited!

[@avrilcrisp5725]

Just what I need, an easy pattern for a warm housecoat. I have an a little used bed quilt which is 15 years old and want to repurpose it as a housecoat. Your tutorial is ideal and I will only have to cut one layer. 😊

[@janisl761]

I love the way u made the coat. Causal but with love. Thanks for sharing the video.

[@UnKnown-zy1km]

Love the coat... Your mom is so cute she looked very happy with her new coat you made. I bet she treasure the coat always because you made it for her its such a sweet and beautiful gift...

[@cloveetabertram3902]

One of the best coats I've seen made yet. Great work 👍🏻

[@paulaboynton8299]

Wow wow wow!! I love it! I have a very simple fleece coat, no hood, I can see myself buying some fleece and making it reversible. Can't wait !

[@WigglyTuffStuff]

Just in time! I want to make a warm housecoat for my toddler. This pattern is perfect!

[@LaineyBug2020]

Lol, turns out I'm going to rewatch and reshare this each year! Still reminds me of a hug!

[@darlinaha5882]

Reversible? Say no more 😤🧡✨

[@judybloom2781]

Wonderful Fluffy coat tutorial. Your mom looks cute in the coat.

[@laurabryannan]

What a great idea! Your mom looks adorable. I love it!

[@MotownDan]

Your mom is so cute and so appreciative!

[@elizabethwilson5349]

Another fabulous make! Your Mom is so pretty, you should have her model more of your makes!

[@JeanPierre-0349]

This is cute and I love the thought of giving handmade items to people and the fact that you made a warm coat for your mom is beautiful and the smile on her face made me smile so thank you for this beautiful video and I hope your hard work pays off. Merry Christmas and hope you have a bright new year.

[@bethwaechter8927]

Oh my goodness April, this is so genius!!!

[@denisehutchinson6318]

Love love love love love there's only one mama in our lives

[@KILITZI]

Why did this make me cry at the end🤣😭😭😭♥️🥰 oooww... the pupper and mamas reaction was priceless. Made my heart warm.

[@kelseycoca]

Omg! Your mom is too cute with the happy dance in her coat! Great job!

[@anythingforselenas0348]

this is the cutest awe! your mom is adorable!!

[@Bolly52]

Finally I see a reversible cloth, waited for quite a long while, thank you!

[@thechrononautswife-dorothy]

I love this project!! To make this truly reversible I would have put solid pockets on the plaid as well. And if I had enough material left I’d totally make a couple belt loops inside and out and a plaid belt if not a belt of both fabrics 🤷‍♀️

[@wxclim8]

So cute and soft! And I see her puppy dog also approves!

[@pirozhockskotom2238]

Your mommy is awesome and the coat is beyond outer space!!! Marry Christmas, April, and may Santa bring you another couple millions of subscribers 🤘😎

[@mirisoji8406]

It looks so soft and cozy, I want to wear my blanket too.

[@judithcatlett8518]

Coats nice, but your sweater and the color, which is one of my favorite, is really nice.

[@TheFashionWHT]

Omg this was a GREAT tutorial!! Seriously, the best one ever (maybe it’s because I love big fluffy teddy coats lol). Ah-mazing job!!

[@bethwaechter8927]

All those thick layers!! You did so wonderful and your mom looks so happy

[@coolirpa]

Thank you so much!

[@smitsiri]

SO FLUFFY

[@coolirpa]

I KNOW

[@magicianmana4]

Holy moly this is so easy. I’m gonna make a bunch for xmas

[@needleweave8881]

Oh! So you're not a good seamstress, but you're a good kind daughter too. Really brilliant. Edit: I knew itttt.. your mummy is slim.. and the puppy is sooo lovely. Stay happy.

[@sdmcdaniel2255]

I love the really simple coat design! It looks like it would be 'easy' to make. I think the ONLY think I would add... is a way to close it! Maybe a heavy duty zipper? Or possibly those corded loop closers? Anyway... nice Christmas gift!!!

[@minettegrocott4018]

That is an amazing coat, was thinking that it was really thick & wondered how it was going to go through the machine. You made it look so easy.

[@wolfietaurus]

Its always hard to find a coat for me so this is making me want to just make it myself 😂 THANK YOU!💜💜💜💜

[@coolirpa]

WolfieTaurus it’s so worth it to make your own! 😊

[@etdicila8894]

This is an amazing gift! Even the dog loves it

[@hlumelabongobi3933]

Oh this is so lovely, can’t wait to do it. I’m really going to be warm this winter 💃

[@smallfootprint2961]

Very cute and simple the way you show it.

[@susankraft77]

Wow! Beautiful coat! Beautiful Mom! You look a lot like her! Blessings all!!!!! 🎀🎀

[@Schulz1362]

I love the coat. You have inspired me to get some fleece and try making one for myself. Thanks for sharing this.

[@mariasmith9998]

That coat is so beautiful. I might have to make me one.

[@melodymartinez2172]

Wow I’m absolutely in love! Great idea!!!!

[@relaxingcute9255]

Omg that looks super cute and comfy. Loved it. Plus gifting it to your mum 🥲🥰

[@AdirondackRuby]

This is the Ultimate in FLOOF!

[@tracyrodney257]

I'm new to the DIY thing, but I love it! I can't sew & don't own a sewing machine, but I wish I did. I would make that coat! Fabulous!!

[@jessicaxiong3309]

Fuzzy AND reversible??? Yes please! This will take be 10x as long tho 😅 but perfect for the weather! I'm so excited 😆

[@nicolerenwick2569]

April I love the coat! If you had the time it would've been cool to see how to do a reversible zipper! I also think it would be cool to have a plaid belt for it and possibly plaid cuffs! :D

[@superisis2009]

Love the coat, looks so warm. I have to make this coat, will be wonderful for the winter in the U.K. Thanks for sharing this.

[@Inthegiggleloop]

Very cute. I think it needs a belt or button to keep it closed. But I love how fluffy it is.

[@christinej2358]

You make sewing look so easy, when it’s not. Love the coat! Thank you for sharing!

[@AR-gg2su]

Custom clothing as a gift....perfect.

[@ayotunzy]

Lovely coat April and your mums reaction was so heartwarming 😁

[@superannieoakley4513]

Beautiful, looks soo yummy and cozy!

[@cassandrawinters2516]

Great job. Wow. You should take that concept to Macys or Walmart.

[@prequnniapettaway5223]

Thank you April for your projects and you've inspired me to pick up sewing this year you're like my little Muse 💕💕

[@k-michael8014]

[@rosaelinav8036]

Fabulous coats two in one coat… I love it’s💖💖💖💖💖

[@doloresw]

I have been looking for fleece like that. Like Im in an area where I only know of Jo Ann Fabric and they dont carry it. Im still new to sewing and learning how to pick fabric online. Love the coat!

[@paulg6527]

Looks so comfy.

[@메컵프리]

I really want to get a fleece coat this winter. But I am doing my BUY LESS project. So I will have to sew a fleece coat. I haven't made a coat. I will try. thanks~
