Wholesale August Jacket - Printed Sewing Pattern

One strong shape with two distinctly different finishes: The Bound August for your thicker weights, or The Faced August (description below) for the denim weight fabrics. Sizes: 6-30 Skill Level: Intermediate - Experienced Design The Bound August (The Faced August details below) Designed for pre-quilted fabric or a thick blanket weight coating with a contrast-bound finish. Pockets squared off on one side and streamlined into the bound hem. The belt is a bias-covered rope utilising the finer bias fabric that compliments the already 3D form of this version. The outer sleeve binding is optional and has an option for a second tie at pocket height to wear the jacket without the belt. Fabrics The Bound August (The Faced August details below) • Quilting - For pre-quilted or DIY quilted fabrics, look for a stable feel to support the August curves. Cotton fill is preferable; very puffy polyester or slippery viscose fill may prove challenging to finish. • Coating - A blanket weight coating with a firm weave to hold good form. Melton is a classic style of wool fabric perfect for the August 350- 600 GSM. • Bias - A poplin-weight cotton is perfect. If you buy a pre-cut bias, the width should be 5 cm • 2”. Extensive details on fabric choices are available in the instructions. Design The Faced August Designed for heavier-weight denim or canvas fabric and finished with full-facing and top stitching for a utilitarian edge. The facing can be cut in the main fabric or contrasted for a peekaboo contrast or to lighten the bulk for machine-friendly construction. The pockets are upside-down arches patched on and scaled for each size. The belt is made from the main fabric, which is narrow, flat, and understated. Fabrics The Faced August • Denim, canvas, duck cloth or similar at a 300 gsm + weight. Suitable for outerwear jackets. To make the August easier to sew, use a lighter fabric for the facings and avoid overly thick junctions some domestic machines might struggle with. This can be a cotton poplin or twill 120 - 180 gsm. Add a mid-weight interfacing to stabilise lighter looser facing fabrics.
