Materials
To create this stunning piece, you'll need several materials to work with. For the jacket, you'll need around 2 yards of fabric, with lining and interfacing. Don't forget the buttons for the closures and some interfacing for the collar. As for the dress, 2 1/2 yards of fabric, lining, and interfacing will be necessary. Make sure to gather the needed notions, such as a zipper, buttons, and snaps.
Pattern Sizes
The pattern comes in B38, which means the bust measurement is around 38 inches. However, remember to measure yourself accordingly and adjust the pattern pieces as needed. You want to make sure the finished garment fits perfectly and brings out the best out of you.
How To
Creating this vintage sewing pattern will take some time and patience, but trust me, it will be worth it. The instructions are quite detailed and easy to follow, but if you need any help, don't hesitate to ask your fellow farmer friends or your local seamstress.
Start by measuring yourself and adjusting the pattern pieces as needed. Cut the fabric and sew the pieces together, following the instructions precisely. Don't forget to add the interfacing and linings, and finish the seams accordingly. Once the pieces are assembled, it's time to add the finishing touches, such as buttons, zippers, and snaps. Voila! You've created a stunning vintage piece that will make heads turn.
