I’d like to make the quilted jacket also be able to sometimes be a standalone lighter jacket for non-rainy days, but I’m trying to wrap my head around the cleanest way to add a zipper or some other type of closure…[Read more]

I made another pair last night and ended up just adding 3/4″ to back and side panel pieces and 1.5″ to the front piece and now everything matches up perfectly. Not sure what’s going on, but that fix works for me!

So the difference between the pants front and the side becomes……[Read more]

Or, when I line up all of the notches and match the pattern pieces, there’s a 13/16″ difference when 8 (pants front)…[Read more]

The first time it happened, I thought it was the pattern so I reprinted and re-assembled those pieces and tried again. Then I saw this post and figured maybe I somehow hadn’t matched the notches properly (so had attached the side panel backward) even though I was pretty sure I had. So I tried a third…[Read more]

I was intending it as something to wear over short and longsleeve tshirts in the spring and summer so hopefully the fit will be okay.

I’ve put together the front and back yokes and front and back panels in a 2T (plus 1″ of added length in torso and sleeves) so far and it’s looking pretty small.
