BIBI QUILTED JACKET a digital PDF download sewing pattern to make this fabulously stylish yet practical jacket. This is a lined, lightweight, generous fitting jacket which is layered with wadding, so it's nice and cosy. Leave the wadding out for a summer jacket- its a perfect jacket for all seasons.
Bibi has curved side vent details and sleeves that you can roll back if required. With two quilted patch pockets, the jacket is fastened with five 25mm (1") buttons, however snap fasteners or ties can be used as an alternative. The jacket is quilted with a choice of two quilt lines ('criss cross' or 'tramlines') both are marked on the pattern pieces. Pre-quilted fabric or self patched fabric are good alternatives.
This is an easy project to make, why not check out the Bibi page at Sewgirl blog- https://sewgirlblog.com/2023/03/08/bibi-quilted-jacket/
where you can see step by step photos showing how the jacket is made with suggestions about alternative necklines such as a V-neck option and inserting ties instead of buttonholes.
Bibi Jacket is sized from Small UK 8-10 (US 6-8), Medium UK 12-14 (US 10-12), Large UK 16-18 (US 14-16), XL UK 20-22 (US 18-20), 2XL UK 24-26 (US 22-24).
Please see the last picture for finished garment measurements and fabric requirements.
Suitable fabrics: Outer and lining would suit any light to medium weight cotton fabric. Wadding: I advise a Vilene fusible fleece H640/H630, 2oz polyester wadding or any quilting batting. (It's great to use up leftover batting from previous quilting projects).
Please note that the pattern instructions are written in English only with metric and imperial measurements.
