I just love the idea of reversible clothing. I mean, two garments in one. It’s space-saving, it’s economical. IT’S LESS LAUNDRY. This Reversible Spring Coat from you & mie is perfectly adorable and I adore that it starts as a simple bodice dress pattern.
Supplies:
- 2 fabrics (yardage will depend on what size coat you’re making)
- 4 buttons (or as many as you desire, just be sure they are the same size and you have enough for both sides of the coat)
- interfacing (optional)
- bodice pattern (there is one linked in the tutorial, but any basic bodice pattern will do)
- sleeve pattern (or draft your own)
- tracing paper
- ruler
Skill level:
Intermediate.

Have you ever attempted to sew a coat? Any great tips for the rest of us?
