Using Metric pattern cutting for childrenswear by Alricht to draft the hood
Inside the coat - Dinosaurs
Welt pockets
Using the last bit of twill/drill left from stash to create the pockets... was a bit of a guess, and I had to piece a bit onto the edge to finish the pocket. I MUCH prefer the welt pockets to the kangaroo pouch pockets.... this coat that I had created is a bizarre mix of tailored details and fast methods!
Pattern Description:
OOP pattern - Toddler pull-over jacket, vest and pants
Pattern Sizing:
T1 -T4
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
No - but that is because I made lots of changes
Were the instructions easy to follow?
Did not use - but that is because I have used this pattern millions of times (almost)... and I was making lots of changes
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
Nice basic pattern to change as necessary
Fabric Used:
Cotton cord, cotton jersey, cotton twill/drill
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:
I made View C WITH sleeves from view A/B
I added a self-drafted hood
I made welt pockets rather than the pouch pockets
I fully lined it
I added ribbing cuff to sleeves and hem.
Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?
I have made this lots of time, but will probably only get a little more use out of it as I have to size T4... which is what I used this time. But this pattern has seen solid use since I got it in 2009....
Conclusion:
Lovely basic pattern to use in a variety of different ways bodywarner bodywarmer for o (first one) more versions another version
