Friday Fun Fact

Today we've got a sewing book review from Laura!

The Coat Route 

Craft, Luxury, and Obsession on the trail of a $50,000 coat 

by Meg Lukens Noonan  

This is one of my favorite books, and I don’t mean a favorite book about fashion or sewing. It is the true story of an Australian businessman who asks his tailor to make him a warm coat for his upcoming move to Vancouver. Because cost is not an issue, the tailor uses the best materials, starting with Vicuna wool at $6,000 a yard, and hand sewing techniques to highlight the dying art of bespoke clothing.  

The author describes each step in making the coat from drafting the pattern to the final detail stitches. She also describes the history of the manufacturing process for the wool, buttons, silk lining, and other components of the coat. The book is not about excess, but about the quality of the supplies and craft that add lasting value to clothing.  

Enjoy the book and think about how sewing our own clothes is a practice of quality.
