The Coat
Inspired by classic tailoring, we’ve created a coat pattern that not only looks fabulous but is an easy, enjoyable make – without the time-consuming tailoring.

The Coat has a slim silhouette with a modern twist. It’s super light with just a buggy lining (the front is faced and the back has a half lining) that you can finish with beautiful, bias binding or leave raw.

Flattering princess seams feature a clever in-seam pocket, while the modern drop sleeves make for a relaxed yet stylish look. The Coat sewing pattern is incredibly versatile, working with heavy to lightweight fabrics. Other features include a notched collar, 2 button front closure and a kick pleat.

We can’t wait to hear what you think about our new patterns. Don’t forget to show us what you make and to use these hashtags on social media #theavidseamstresscoat #theavidcoat #coatpattern #coatmaking #thegathereddress #theavidseamstress
