Papercut Patterns Reversible Rigel Bomber Jacket

Just some photos and notes on the making of my Papercut Patterns Rigel Bomber made last year with speckled Robert Kaufman chambray on one side and Liberty Tresco Tana Lawn (green or C colour way) on the other! There's also some cotton wadding (for quilting) to make it warmer (and to make the print pop, … Continue reading Papercut Patterns Reversible Rigel Bomber Jacket →

#kellyanorak double pockets part 2! Also, can you spot the inside welt pocket? For this you’ll have to get the #tostijacket pattern 🤪 but I love this double welt pocket! So easy and effective!
A couple of you have asked about the double pockets on my #kellyanorak , I had the good sense to take step by step photos while I did it! Part 1 here, part 2 next. I just cut a smaller piece of the main pocket piece so that it can sit directly in front of it when finished, then did mitred corners to reduce bulk. Bear in mind I’ve got the wrong pieces together in image 5, the finishing on the pocket opening of the outside piece should be hidden, not visible! Disclaimer, I haven’t once used the outer more secure pockets 😂 because anything that I didn’t want falling out or pickpocketed I put in my inside welt pocket, and it’s much more comfortable to put your hands in the pockets with the flaps out of the way! @closetcasepatterns has a flapped pocket extension on their website which I did use to figure this out, do check it out!
And my #v9075 collection!
My outerwear collection in chronological order! 1. Apr 2017 - Reversible #rigelbomber 2. Oct 2017 - #tostijacket 3. Nov 17 - #coatigansilvia 4. Sep 19 - #kellyanorak 5. Nov 19 - #rigelbomber x #tostijacket mishmash.. 2018 was a black hole 😂 I think in the future, I shall exclusively use liberty fabric for lining 😆
Just realised there is no evidence of my #kellyanorak on my feed! Was too lazy to make a toile so made a size 8 and graded to 10 at the hips (after my #coatigansilvia ended up too snug around the hips!)! Only other mods are the double layer outside pockets and a hidden welt one inside! Cord stop and brick sanded twill from @merchantandmills , prym hardware (highly recommended!), and of course @libertyfabrics Tresco lining in a softer colour way! Cord from some eBay store.. can’t remember where the zip is from!
Finally finished my winter jacket! This will be my last complex make of the year, only easy projects from now on! This has the bones of a @papercutpatterns #rigelbomber, the large hood, neckline and inner welt pocket of a @yuki_wafflepatterns #tostijacket, and a self drafted inner collar, with zipper facing techniques learnt from the #kellyanorak! Inter lined with thinsulate, hope this will keep me nice and warm! Pockets from an old cashmere sweater that didn’t survive a moth attack. The thinsulate adds a lot of bulk and stiffness to the jacket, I had to painstakingly trim down the seams twice! Also, you can’t iron thinsulate, it melts.. it meltssssss.... lined with @libertyfabrics faria flowers tana lawn!

The tiniest little kitty sat on my shoe!
Haven’t posted many travel pics either, but ticked off two new countries this year! Cambodia and Spain (!!)! This is a very very sweaty me in Bayon Temple, Angkor Wat back in August, in my #winslowculottes full elastic hack and linen Gorman t shirt that left all sorts of fluff on me because of the sweat and sunblock 😂 #showusyourgorman
