Thoughts on Atria's Fashions Ghawazee coat pattern?

[Lady L]

Thank you for posting your family pic, Jessi.  
Your daughter looks like an average girl, I think, hard to imagine an adult that small!
There are numerous pics of the garb I have sewed for my granddaughters on here, somewhere.

Today, I sewed the facing over the neck edge and corded loops for buttons. I hand sewed the facing on the inside  down, because the fabric is soooo slippery and ironing it didn't make it stay down.

Here's my finished Atira's Ghawazee coat pattern. I used brocade for the coat, blue chiffon for the veil, gold and black woven for the pants and sequin fabric for the top on one side, black panne on the other side. I took apart an old belt and sewed the coins onto the top.







It wasn't a difficult pattern, but the fabric was not easy to work with.

I really like the many layers. Came out really well.

I really like this style of garb and really want one of these but have never seen the pattern before...where could I get a copy of the pattern?

[Lady L]

Thank you!  

I will look up where I ordered the pattern from.

Might help your search if you enter "Atira's" not Atria's.  

Ok, back. I found three sites that sell this pattern. I might have ordered it from Alter Years, or Scheherezade, not sure.

I looooove the fabric you used...where did you get it?

The blue and gold is sari brocade, from Joann Fabric, so is the blue chiffon.
