Simplicity patterns go fast and this one is no exception. Pix below the cut:

coat exterior, sans sleeves
See, it's already looking like something! Also notice the pockets are sewn on. And in:

welt pocket peeking from underneath flap
The pattern hides a lot of the detail, unfortunately. The welts aren't perfectly even, but they are finished and lie flat, as does the interior:

pocket from the inside
I serged the edges of the pocket on the inside, but I'm not sure I want to finish any of the other seams this way - this isn't a hyper-historically-accurate project but machine-finished edges are a bit obvious if there's ever a flash of inside during wear. I may turn them under and finish them as this seems easiest and less messy than my other options (Fray Check and waxing the edges).

Looking great! Love the different-angle shimmer and tonal changes of the fabric. :-)
