That Evans one is very thin....I looked at it the other day....more a "just nipping to the shops" kind of coat rather than a "keeping you warm" one.

This afternoon will be dedicated to sewing, I got a lovely black tunic top on ebay last week but it's about 3 inches too long so looks like a tent...I need to take it up and in a bit....then need to crack on with some xmas pressies.

Personally, I would wash it on a 30 degree quickwash, then take it out quick, smooth it out, hang it on a coathanger somewhere reasonably warm and hope for the best. I don't ever dry clean anything though, and have only had one disaster."I wasn't wrong, I just wasn't right enough.":smileyhea97800072589250

I might get this one and deal with the dry clean bit when I need to. What do you girls think
Looks lovely but how pleasant will flannel be when it rains

Spud I know you don't get to go very often but I got DD1 and 2 coats from Primark for £17 yesterday. They are warm and easy care....Quality is doing something right when no one is looking - Henry Ford

Still never been hun. I think Primark should sell online :rolleyes:
Right, theres this one and this one too. Both machine washable :cool:
Maybe I should try to think other than a grey/black parka Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:Loves being a Wonderbra friend :kisses3:
