Great download. Worked well as a pattern. I needed a larger size than the pattern came with, but it is simple enough that I could add to it and make it work for what I needed.
I absolutely fell in love with the look of this jacket and just had to make it!! The instructions are hard to follow since they’re old so if I could give a tip to anyone, it would be to input the step you’re on into chatgpt (ai) and have it translate it into more modern and easy to understand instructions! Other than that, the pattern was easy to print out and assemble and I’m in love with the end product! I had to improvise the waistband a little since I messed up the zipper
Great Item, Great Service, Many Thanks
I didn't get to use this, but it seems good!
