I made the Wren in a beautiful berry coloured coral fleece that I’d originally made into a poncho but never wore.
I omitted the pockets, used snaps along with large buttons instead of sewing buttonholes, and top stitched the inside of the facings rather than on the edge of the garment.
I’m so pleased with my finished jacket and have had several compliments from complete strangers.
Thank you Style Arc, yet another winning design!

I made this in a lightweight quilted cotton fabric. I shortened it by 5cm/ 2″ so that it sat above my hips and also shortened the sleeves by the same amount – short arms! I made the size 14, rather than my standard size 16, as I didn’t want it too oversized. I bound the front and neck edges with bias made from fabric left over from a previous make. Very happy with the results.

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.
