sewing for robert's halloween costume

so after a rigorous night of cutting, poking myself with needles, folding, ironing, and sewing i have completed one of my favorite projects yet, roberts tail coat!

robert and i drove to the goodwill where i let him pick out an xxxl mens dress coat. it needed to be long for the tail part (which i still need to take a picture of his backside LOL), so an xxxl was crucial. never mind that it was wide, that is an easy fix. you just fit it and sew up the sides. then comes the hard part where i put all my focus in where to cut and where to sew. it's a little hard to explain in words but maybe i might post a tutorial since i want to make one for myself. i know my words dont give it justice. and it is a really easy reconstruct, if you want to try this out you definitely should and look at examples online to wing it! difficulty i would rate at basic sewing skills, unless you're going for a clean look then i'd rate it at experienced sewing skills.
