Rebecca Burt is a self-taught seamstress who runs the Etsy shop Verity Clothing. This 25-year-old designer drafts her own patterns and started naming them a few years ago to keep order, hence the title "Louisa" for the coat she created. Made from vintage double-knit fabric, this iteration of the coat was intended to be a test garment. Although Rebecca plans to change a few features in the next version, she felt this one was too beautiful not to wear.The lined coat features welt pockets, covered buttons, and topstitching. Rebecca has learned a lot navigating the ins and outs of patternmaking, as evidenced on her blog, BeccasCreativeNotions.com, and plans to soon launch Moxie Patterns, a pattern line.
