4/2010 # 24 St. Germain Trenchcoat Pattern Description
St. Germain Cord Trenchcoat Which view and size did you make?
size 98 Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
Yes If not, why?
- Were the instructions easy to follow?
No If not, why?
There is a mistake in the instructions. They tell you to attach the lining front to back at the shoulders before you sew the facing on. This won't work. You have to first sew the facing on, then you can sew the shoulders. What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
I disliked that the lining was not attached to the jacket at the hem. I like the double breasted style. Fabric used
no-whale corduroy for outer, underlining of killington flannel, lining of cheapo lining fabric Pattern alterations or any design changes you made or would recommend
make the lining a bit longer so that you can make a jump pleat and attach it to the hem. Would you sew this pattern again?
Yes Would you recommend this pattern to others?
Yes Any additional comments
