The Fabric:<\/strong><\/h4>\nWhen I saw this fabric<\/a> which is a polyester nylon blend, I knew I had to make a jacket. I have always dreamt of having a red jacket so it was a no brainer to go with this color. I love that Fabricville has a variety of colors in this fabric as well. It is a thick, warm fabric with a felted feel to it and is a dream to cut through with scissors due to it’s weight and stability. However, if you do not own a steamer like me, I’ll advise that you put a lightweight fabric over the it when pressing. The Kashmir coating does not have a lot of drape so it is great for slightly more structured projects.<\/p>\n\u00a0![\"\"](\"https:\/\/blog.fabricville.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/1-200x300.jpg\")
<\/em><\/p>\nThe Pattern\/Instructions:<\/strong><\/h4>\nTo bring this fabric to life, I used Burda 6736<\/a>\u00a0which has both a jacket and coat version but I decided to make the jacket. It is a loose fitting jacket with an integral spade collar. This pattern only has six pieces and nine very clear steps and illustrations for the pattern.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/blog.fabricville.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/IMG_4329-300x300.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
The Process:<\/strong><\/h4>\nI really enjoyed making this jacket as it was a relatively easy project. It requires two buttons and interfacing for the facings. Here are some progress shots.<\/p>\n

The Fit:<\/strong><\/h4>\nThe fit is very loose so I’ll suggest to look at the finished garments \u00a0measurements and use those. I had to go two sizes down from my regular size.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Tips:<\/strong><\/h4>\nThis pattern does not recommend edge stitching but I would highly recommend it. As you can see from the photos, I did not do that initially. Once I did, it looked even better and had a cleaner finish.<\/p>\n
