   Loved this pattern. I made it in a wonderful brown plaid fabric, so doubled the fabric to match the plaids and make the collar lay correctly. Then I trimmed it all around with brown leather. It’s awesome! I will definitely make another – this time with ponte fabric so there’s no matching or dealing with the issue of the collar.

   This is a slim fitting non flared knee length coat. I chose a ponte fabric as recommended, and it suited the design perfectly, particularly around the shoulders and upper back, I didn’t need to do any fitting alterations at all. I added binding around the full length of the front opening and collar and left a raw edge on the hem and the end result is a smart, tailored looking garment, Highly recommended.

Choosing your pattern size is the most important step and we will help you determine this with these easy to follow steps.

1. 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.
2. 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.
3. 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.
4. 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.
