Suggested Fabrics

Primary Fabric: Use lightweight to medium weight woven fabric. Twill, broadcloth, chambray, taslan nylon and linen are great choices. Lining: Use lightweight, stable woven fabric such as cotton. The bodice is not lined, but the lining is used for the pockets, pocket flaps, hood and armhole. Interfacing: Use lightweight to medium weight fusible woven or weft insertion interfacing. If using taslan nylon as primary fabric, be sure to use interfacing that fuses at low temperature.

Notions

• Ten 1/2" (1.25 cm) no-sew snap fasteners with corresponding tool for installation.
• A separating zipper for jackets.

Size Chart, Finished Measurements, and Fabric Requirements

Choosing your Size

• Determine your cup size—subtract the circumference of your over bust from the circumference of the fullest part of your bust. If the rounded difference is 1″ (2.5 cm), use A cup; 2″ (5 cm), use B cup; 3″ (7.5 cm), use C cup; 4″ (10 cm), use D cup; 5″ (12.5 cm), use DD cup.
• After determining the cup size, compare your bust circumference (fullest part) to the “Body Measurements” table. Using the corresponding row for your cup, choose the size that best fits your bust. If you are between sizes, choose the smaller size if you like your garment more fitted; otherwise, choose the bigger size.
• Compare your waist circumference (narrowest part) to the “Body Measurements” table. Choose the size that best fits your waist. If you are between sizes, choose the smaller size if you like your garment more fitted; otherwise, choose the bigger size.
• Compare your hip circumference (widest part) to the “Body Measurements” table. Choose the size that best fits your hip. If you are between sizes, choose the smaller size if you like your garment more fitted; otherwise, choose the bigger size.
• It’s OK to use different sizes. See “Blend Sizes” in instructions for details.
• If you are taller or shorter than 5’6” (168 cm), you should consider lengthening or shortening the top (see instructions for details).
• It is highly recommended that you check your fit by making a test garment with inexpensive fabric that has similar weight as your final garment fabric.
