Well drafted. Nice pattern. Leon jacket. Not a kimono.

It's called a kimono but doesn't have the sleeves, so I will go with Leon jacket. I chose the pattern after have consulted with other Foldliners about how to use this fabric. This designer hails from Belgium and, initially, I was put off by clumsy translation from French to English e.g. 'sticked' together and the use of the word 'waistband', which has a specific meaning in sewing, to describe the tie belt. But I liked the pattern and will consider some of her others.
It was straightforward and quick to make. It's described as one-size which seems a big ask to me and you might want to check this.
I chose it to make up some tiger silk, bought in India, and I used the border for the collar, band and facing. I haven't sewn with silk much and find it isn't my favourite thing. The band stuck together a lot when I was trying to press it into place, encouraged by the adhesive on the thin interfacing. The fabric needs slot of tacking (basting) too. I hope it will settle down with washing and hanging. Some of the other seams are not straight.(I French seamed throughout).
Anyway, it's quickly finished and with an unintended but hilarious piece of action on one of the pockets.
