18th Century Pirate Coat

I tried to recreate the suit worn by Blackbeard in the show Our flag means death.
The pattern used is from Reconstructing history RH801 - 1740s Frock Coat sewing pattern

Material links:
French millitary wire used in the show was from this shop: tinseltrading.com/
Japan thread: www.etsy.com/no-en/shop/ZELKO...
Embroidery material(they sell french wire now as well, tears were shed) : www.etsy.com/no-en/shop/Embro...
I'm pretty sure I found the cuff lace, but it was neon orange, it was a makuba lace if anyone wants to hunt it down.

    I picked up my first piece to embroider at age 8. 66 years later I fully appreciate the dedication and skill it took to accomplish this project. Well dons!

    This is awesome- and I love the way your cats want to be involved with it all! I think all cats must be like this; I know mine likes to be part of whatever I’m doing!

    hello, i also found this pattern some days ago and was thinking of buying it since i also want to make a coat from this era (think of the red velvet coat captain James hook has in peter pan 2003). how was working with it? do you recommend it? do you have any other better patters suggestions?

    I talk more about the pattern in the breeches video, and I believe someone suggested better pattern makers there as well. Generally this brand is not recommended for beginners, their patterns are historically sourced, but you need to know how to make it yourself, meaning: no instructions. I will hopefully not use a pattern from them again. I didn't like it.
