I was disappointed with the jacket to start with. I lined it because of the fabric and I put side pockets in and didn’t like the look of the jacket at all.. After leaving the jacket on a hanger in the sewing room for months I decided to put pockets on the front and top stitched around the collar and the sleeves. After I pressed it properly I am very happy with the result. I am now looking at the extension to make different versions.

I love this pattern. True to size, relatively easy to sew. The neckline is a bit tricky and I’m not sure I made it as it was suppose to but it turned about pretty good in the end.

I bought the Loren Jacket pattern because of the Style Arc autumn capsule plans. It was my first Style Arc pattern that I sewed up and was really pleased with the results. I did feel like there were too many markings on the individual pattern pieces but I used YouTube video sewing tutorials to help me understand the instructions. However, I re-read the instructions after completing my first wearable muslin. Then I realized that the instructions were simple and straight-forward to understand. Sometimes you just have to ignore the hype. If you understand garment construction and have previously made shawl collars, then you will understand how to sew this collar. If not, there are online sewing tutorials. I made my first version – a wearable muslin – out of an orangey-yellow French terry knit. I finished all the seams with bias binding because this material frayed a lot. I am making another 2 versions – one mustard and one bright red – out of wool blend coating fabrics. For these versions, I will be adding a lining and plan to cut the back piece twice so that I can create some back shaping along the centre back seam. I have a full bottom so the back shaping will help smooth the fabric over my bum. I feel like I will be making this jacket on repeat. I love it!

The pattern was great easy to use as I have been sewing for along time, silly me used a plaid pattern but the coat pattern was simple enough to match up lines so everything matches up, unlike some coats in shops that are terribly wonky. Easy to wear and people complement on my fabulous coat.

I love this pattern! I wear a lot of cardigans, but I wanted something a little more sophisticated when the occasion calls for it. This is perfect. I love some of the options – line or don’t line, cuff it or leave the sleeve hem plain….
I am never disappointed by Style Arc patterns.

Simple shape with nice collar. I made it in an unlined brushed ponte and inseam pockets. I topstitched the pocket bags to the front and did the same to the facing to hold everything in place. I will make this again, maybe sleeveless as a change.

I made this jacket in a glitzy fabric suitable for evening wear. I lined it as the fabric needed to be lined, I was very happy with the pattern, it went together very well. I had some difficulty with the hems as I hadn’t done this type of garment with lining for a long time, however I eventually found instructions on Y Tube which helped.
An excellent pattern which I will probably use again.

This jacket went together very quickly, a satisfying sew. I made it in a soft, thick fabric and found that using a clapper when pressing made the shawl collar lie perfectly. I lined the sleeves. I’m very likely to use the pattern again and will probably use inseam pockets next time, just for variety.

I have made three of these now. Still not happy with the shawl collar but you can’t see the issue. This is a boxy easy to sew pattern and easy to make changes. The third one I made has no collar and was made with a fabric that I made from pinwheel quilt blocks. It is lined with a cozy bambpo quilt natting, quilted, then fully lined. I would love to figure out how to down load pictures. This is a good pattern

How Do I Know What Size I Am?
Choosing your pattern size is the most important step and we will help you determine this with these easy to follow steps.
When taking your measurements ensure that you take them against your skin and not over clothing. One can wear a comfortable bra and knickers whilst measuring, as this will provide you with the most accurate measurements.
Tape measure has to sit firmly around the points you are measuring. But be careful not to pull it too tight, as this will give you the incorrect size.
When measuring circumferences (B, C, D, E) it is important to note that the tape measure must remain parallel to the floor. It is sometimes best to take the measurements in front of a mirror; this will help you see the angle of the tape measure.
You will only require the basic body measurements to determine your pattern size which is indicated on our mannequin below:
A. Shoulder Breadth
Place the tape at the edge of the shoulder. Measure along the top of the shoulder blade/across the highest point of the shoulders to the other edge, following the natural slope and allow an extra finger for ease of any movement.
B. Upper Arm Girth
This point is taken as a circumference at your widest point of your upper arm.
C. Bust
This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the fullest part of your chest.
D. Waist
This point is taken as a circumference and taken at the smallest part of your waist.
E. Hip
This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the widest part of your hips.
