Graduation and my coat

It's official, I am a graduate! It is crazy to be done. I am not quite sure what to do with myself. My parents and sister and her kids were able to come down and spend the weekend with us. It was great. We had fun.
For my last sewing class (Fiber Arts) we have to make a coat, using at least four different tech. that we had learned in class. For my coat I did twin needle, beading, machine embroidery, and painted my lining. I was very excited how good my coat turned out. I looked forward to wearing it. It will be on display at the American Heritage Center all summer. We had to name our coat and I named mine My Happy Ending.





This is my lining that I painted.
