Ready to level up your Renessaince Faire costume with a cozy layering item? This coat/kaftan has been one of the biggest projects I've ever done on this channel, with its lavish embroidery and challanging design. Yet it still holds a special place in my heart as one of my top creations.

🌧I'm sorry for the lengthy reveal; I hope you still find it enjoyable! We attempted to film it three times, twice thwarted by rain and the last time by the wind, so I ended up with a lot of footage. And after all I felt like such a huge project deserved a more elaborate reveal. 🌧

Thank you for taking us with you. The Kaftan is absolutely stunning. The embroidery is gorgeous and I have fallen in love with the sleeves and the ties.

Thank you! It ended up being one of my favourite garments I ever designed too, even if it caused a lot of headache to make 😄

And to think, it was four months WITH the machine doing the embroidery. Imagine how long this kind of heavily-embroidered pattern USED to take, when it had to be done by hand! Loved the project, so creative and well-done! And I especially appreciate the parts that didn't come out exactly as first envisioned (like the lining trouble) because that's just so relatable.

That embroidery is so stunning! Digitizing scared me haha. You are so lucky to be able to make/have such a beautiful piece. If I may ask, have you ever considered selling your patterns? No pressure, I was just curious

Yes, it's in my long term plans to clean up the patterns and put them up for sale one day! I just need to find the time 😄
