Such a sweet little coat and perfect for a beginner sewist! The result is extremely professional with even the most basic sewing skills.
Love this pattern…

This was the pattern that made me believe that I can sew! Two fully lined waterproof jackets and the kids love them. Thank you for this and all of the other awesome patterns. You’ve turned a wannabe into a sewer…!

I can honestly say as a long time beginner (I’ve only made a few of the easier items for waves and wilds I gave this ago with help from the waves and wilds community I did and have 2 gorgeous personalised coats for my 2 boys. I can honestly say the patterns are lovely to follow and the Facebook community is fab if you need help. As a beginner this really helped me to learn and boosted my confidence at the same time, I will be definitely using this pattern again.

I absolutely love this pattern! The coat fits my daughter well with room to layer. We’ve used it in rain and snow with insulating layers underneath and she has stayed warm and comfortable! We get so many compliments when she wears her woodland wanderer. I made it last August in a size 4 and she hasn’t outgrown it yet which is a huge win!
