from 4052 reviewsI loved this jacket as soon as I saw it but it took me awhile to get round to buying and making. I bought 3.5 m of 148cm wide soft handle cotton drill fabric weight was 225gsm.
The jacket came together really well but is a slow sew due to a lot of seam binding. I also made my own bias binding from a cotton lawn I had in my stash. I like the way you bind nearly all of the hems before you sew them together . You do have to make the notches with chalk or whatever so you can still see them after the seams are bound. This is an important part not to miss out on.
The pleating really makes the jacket stand out and the shape just flows as you sew. I will make another in a heavier fabric but it still need some drape, I also will line the back,sleeves and front panels, although the jacket is roomy it doesn’t slip over a wool jumper as easily as I would like, lining it would alleviate that I think.

I absolutely love this T - I've made 5, including a long sleeve hack. Although it's a fitted T, based on my buddy measurements, the size I made just skims the body rather than hugging and showing all the lumps and bumps. It's not as tightly fitted as TATB Agnes for example. I've lived in these over the summer, paired with Saguaros. For autumn and winter the long sleeve hack will work really well with Roans or other jeans.

I made the version with a collar in Liberty fabric - Ciara. I modeled it at the knit and stitch festival 2025.
Beautiful sophisticated dress.
It says the dress is advanced, but just go for it
Honestly, you won’t regret it.

I bought this pattern as I love a cowl neck. I have made this pattern twice, with both long and short sleeves. This is a simple pattern to follow, and easy to make; though I have top stitched the back neck facing to keep it in place. I like the cowl neck which is perfect for those of us who need to keep our cool. I will definitely make this again. I have used viscose jersey for both versions as I find it drapes well.

If you're looking for something just a bit different, this might be a good option. This was my first foray into knitted fabrics so I picked a (cheap!) French terry. I have tiny shoulders so tried making that adjustment - which is never enough. Other than that I just went with the standard pattern for the finished garment size I wanted.
The written instructions are generally pretty clear and with the diagrams the potentially complicated front came together easily. Love the pockets and I'd only make a few small tweaks for the next one. It's quite short so I'd definitely add a bit to the length and I prefer no cuffs on a sweatshirt so would just lengthen the sleeves and skip them. Overall, I'd really recommend this pattern and will certainly check out more from this designer.

This made me fall in love with tailoring again! Loved its construction. Made with linen and Tana lawn cotton lining.

Although I'd only made a couple of tops before, I thought I'd give this one a go. So glad I did. I watched the video for how to do the squared sleeves - it would have been much harder if I hadn't. But overall it was a very quick make. Only a few pieces and everything went together easily. I really like the style of this top and plan to make many more.

This is a trench coat pattern with just about all the elements you would look for (though I did add a hanging loop - why is this not included as standard for all coat patterns!). The cape will help to protect from the rain at both front and back, and makes a nice feature - I put in a touch of reflective piping to the back cape as I will be likely to use the coat while cycling. The welt pockets are a must-have and end up very capacious on the inside, and nice and neat from the outside. Add in the walking vent and generous skirt of the coat and you have a very classy result.
There are a lot of pieces to the pattern, but if you keep your head and take it in stages it is not a problem (I did allow myself as much time as I needed to, and stopped in places when I needed to do something else instead). The coat side, front, and back are quite large pieces individually and once assembled together, and you do need a good-sized working area as you handle it. Normally you would hem the sleeves after sewing them into place of course, but I was a bit nervous about the weight of the whole coat and so I hemmed them in advance of sewing them in. It did mean they ended up slightly longer than ideal, rather than me getting them to just the right length, but when I'm cycling with it on I think it will be better to have longer sleeves than shorter ones (and I can roll the cuffs a little anyway).
The pattern is unlined and for most fabrics that would be how you would want to leave it; because I chose a waterproof fabric with a plastic coating I lined the sleeves and bodice just to prevent my skin touching clammy underside of coat on those rainy days.

I’ve made two of the round necked version. Easy to follow instructions. Sizing comes up a little on the large size. I have made this in 18 and 16, but will invest in the smaller size range of this pattern for my next summer makes. I’ve had lots of compliments on these jumpsuits and find them to be flattering and comfortable.

I made the sleeveless version of the blouse for my holiday. I splashed out on the MF Reflet fabric and was really happy with the results, the cowl neck fell beautifully. I found it easier to make it the second time, as I was familiar with the pattern (and had no sleeves). The sleeve facings sit nicely and mean it all looks neat and tidy. I really enjoyed wearing this 😊

I made the plain version of this skirt (without the balloon hem). I found it easy to follow, with clear instructions and pictures/diagrams. I made it from a cotton Broderie anglaise so lined it with a plain cotton lawn. Made this for my holiday and loved wearing it.

This was my first attempt to follow a pattern, and Sew Over It has great instructions and a sew-along YouTube video that helped me with the collar construction.

I made a view A in medium weight wool. I lengthened both bodice and sleeves 2 cm to account for my height (176 cm). I sized up one size to be able to fit a thick sweater underneath, but given the final result, I don't think sizing up was necessary. I also lined it, partly following directions on her blog. The jacket instructions were easy to follow, and the jacket nicely came together. I am really happy with the result!

Loved making this Ellis dress. Made two so far and always received compliments. A real head turner! Love the neckline the most. I’m 5’10” so I lengthened

This is a really nice little jacket pattern, it ends up very smart and a bit different from others. The collar stands up which give it an interesting shape, and at the back there is a little cut-out similar to the one that waistcoats often have (and in fact I do sometimes wear it with a waistcoat).
I've made it twice and am thinking of making a third one. The first time, I used a cotton twill in a purple-blue; it is a bit of a transitional piece and I can wear it in spring and autumn comfortably. The second time I made it in wool and it is both light and warm. Both times I have added a lining - the base pattern is unlined but it is easy to add it, just by cutting out the same pieces in a lighter fabric. I also added pockets; again the base pattern doesn't include them, but a small patch pocket or waistcoat welt pocket fits fine. Both of these are optional elements that I prefer to add personally, while others may be happy with just the base version with its smart shape.
