Restyled Pattern


This is a Jesire jacket that I have. I really like the collar detail.
Using a Kwik Sew jacket pattern as a basic starting point, I drafted the collar of my jacket,
onto the paper pattern. I also added lining using the bagging method.



I used a fine cord fabric which was quite difficult to work with.
It took several attempts to get the collar sitting correctly as the fabric was quite bulky.
I think I would use a lighter fabric on my next attempt.

Wow, that turned out so similar to your original jacket. I'm always in awe of people who can see something they like and imitate it. Great job! Thanks for the inspiration!
