I am Jacques, a classic raincoat with a hood. My zipper is hidden by a button placket which closes with snap fasteners. I have two big patched pockets to carry your essentials. I am fully lined and you can sew me in 2 different lengths.
In a raincoat fabric, I am a staple for the seaside and in other fabrics I’ll be perfect for a trip into town or a walk in the countryside.
I AM Patterns are designed to be traced off. The different pieces overlap with each other so you will need to trace the pattern on paper. This means that you will be able to make multiple sizes of the garment and adjust the pattern as you trace it if necessary. For this you could use tracing paper, baking parchment, thin wrapping paper; or we can supply you with some .
The pattern is enclosed in an envelope. It contains the sewing pattern along with a step-by-step illustrated explanation guide.
