I loved the outcome. I used quite a stretchy material for the main body of the collar though which I wouldn't recommend. I was also a bit perplexed by the grain line and cutting the main pieces on the fold. If I folded at the fold on the pattern then the grain line would have been off on a diagonal. In the end I cut 2 pieces for the front and back and sewed them in the middle. This is probably down to my inexperience as i'm a beginner.
I was playing Mrs. Santa Claus with a old costume. The pattern worked perfectly to make a fur collar for the costume.
Not made yet, but looks like a great addition to my wardrobe

I made this as a gift and my recipient loved it. I recommend interfacing both collar pieces as the ruffle inside was quite bulky. Could even add some batting inside for heft. Don’t skip hand stitching closed to make it reversible!
I couldn’t get the corner to turn sharply out but the rounded corner is cute too! If the instructions ever get updated, I recommend using a non-patterned fabric for the guide as I found the busy print a bit hard to decipher, but overall easy enough to follow. Thanks for a great free pattern!!
Had a lot of fun completing this project, it was really one of my first start to finish garment sewing projects. Very achievable and confidence building! I’ll definitely be making more.
