It’s here! Say a big hello to our new pattern, The Blazer.

It’s going to be the hero of your wardrobe as you can throw it over t-shirts, dresses, shirts – it will work with anything.

With a stylish relaxed fit, The Blazer features shoulder darts, front pockets, panelled sleeves and is fully lined. It’s a great introduction to tailoring and is aimed at intermediate seamstresses, but we think our awesome easy-to-follow instructions will aid a confident beginner.

Key skills include constructing and sewing a blazer collar, setting in panelled sleeves and putting together a fully lined garment. Oh, and it can be made in a variety of fabrics such as lightweight wool, corduroy, moleskin, heavy cotton, crepe and velvet. Just imagine this in a crisp summer linen or crepe in this spring’s colour trends of fiery scarlet and saffron.
