I just need to express how much i LOVE the Thompson coat! Everything about it! Congratulations on such a great design, and THANK YOU! (And good luck with the house. One day you will have forgotten this exhausting period in life)

wowww thank you so so much for this deep dive. I just bought the pattern and I'm using my thompson coat project as a distraction from the election in the US in the next couple of weeks (whew ugh)! I'm especially excited about that flannel lining from mood- hoping for a really cozy winter coat!

Yeah, old house wiring is a whole thing--but you will be glad you did it. Just make sure they put in more outlets than you think you will need- ask me how I know🙃🙃.

About instructions, I really appreciate what Scroop does. Leimomi has one set that are basically a slightly elaborated order of construction and a second set with more handholding. I've found it very useful-- I always start with the ooc and then refer to the other if I have questions, but really like not being bogged down with words/pics I don't need.

I love the Thompson and I'm SO thrilled for all the new updates and releases. I'd been waiting to make my second one until they came out 😋 I've been wanting a lining.

Good luck with the house wiring- as someone with a century home, my sympathies to the MAX. I know you'll get it to a good place. Very excited about the next newsletter!
