Garden Witch Coat for April eHAG

I love a garden witch who sows seeds and plants herbs and wears light colors in the Winter, Spring and Summer months. Only as the Autumn winds turn cooler does she appear in jewel tones and withering grays and black.

This coat is perfect for early morning walks or strolls in the late evening when the breeze is a bit chilly.

It has a very cobbled together, raw edge applique look. I stitch favorite fabrics down to a foundation and it’s like a quilt without the batting. 

After washing the edges softly fray and add a lovely texture. Size XXL with kimono style sleeves (buttons on cuffs to adjust) and a ruffle at the bottom. She’s bell shaped like a flower with side seam pockets.

Easy to wear and just toss in the wash on cold; dry in warm dryer- can be ironed as needed.

The back says: “Grow With Wild Abandon”

Imagery includes floral motifs with a moon and sparrows; gnomes, book pages, leaves, garden girls and vintage style fabrics. 

“We come from the Earth,

We return to the Earth,

And in between We Garden”
