Big project finished/auditions

I have now finished the Debbie Bliss coat and it's having its first outing today. Photo attached!
I really like it, it's very warm, falls beautifully and the colour is fabulous. My only problem is that the collar turns up and I can't get it to sit properly, though that might be due to my paltry ironing skills! I'm very proud of the actual knitting as well, it's pretty even, and the tension seems good. This is going to give me the confidence to get on with the two Kim Hargreaves kits I ordered and should be waiting for me in the UK this weekend. I'm also going to head up to John Lewis to stock up for the other projects I've got on my horizon. But the free pattern baby shawl is the current project that needs to get finished.
Theatre also came up again this week, with an audition for the Real Lady Macbeth, which the Brussels Shakespeare Society will be taking to the FEATS festival in Luxembourg. I really like the play and would really like to be involved, but I'm not sure that I'll get either of the female parts, as I'm probably too young for one and too old for the other. But, we'll see. Hope to hear in the next day or two.
