I’m convinced now it is a good approach for me. Last week I drafted a pattern for a jacket, the same idea of jacket I made last year. I wearit but after all the work I’ve done on it I still think it could be better. It was made from a Burda pattern which I altered and altered…
The muslin of my self-drafted pattern. Could not find shoulderpads which will help with the fit in the back, but otherwise I’m pretty pleased with the result. Remember this is also not interfaced or otherwise stabilized. Just muslin fabric. Taking it to class tonight to hear what my teacher thinks.
It looks quite good on the photo! What fabric did you use? ( And where have you bought it. if I may ask it :-)
ReplyDeleteHij staat je mooi!
Thank you. Suppose you mean the fabric of the jacket of last year. That I bought in Oudewater, it was a remnant piece.
ReplyDeleteThank you. It's beautiful!
ReplyDeleteQuite good and the pads will definitely even out the back. I can't believe you drafted all of this, amazing!
ReplyDeleteWow, your draft is very good. Are there two princess panels in the front and back? Your draft of the two-piece sleeve is great as well. Very impressive!
ReplyDeleteYou make the best jackets Sigrid!
ReplyDeleteLooks good! Hang in there - you will be rewarded with a great pattern that looks great on you! The hard work will be worth it.
ReplyDeleteYour muslin is really looking good. Two piece sleeves are render better garments in my opinion - although they take more time.
ReplyDeleteThis is really good. It's also basic enough that you should be able to make variations without much trouble. Brava!👍
ReplyDeleteLooking good. Shoulder pads will make a difference too. I think (personally) it could sit closer around the neck to be more flattering to your slender neck.
ReplyDeletegosh your pattern drafting is getting so good - perhaps you'll finish this before your visit!
ReplyDeleteyou always amaze me with your skills!
