UnFinished No More! Making a Coat I Started 16 (!!) Years Ago + Making an EASY Fabric Flower

UnFinished Objects! It's a love-hate relationship. So much potential, so little motivation. For this 16-year-old coat project, that ends now! I'm going through what landed this in a box for so long, what has inspired me to pull it out again, and how sometimes, timing is everything. ⏰
Enjoy!
