A coat may seem like an ambitious sewing project, but Deborah Kreiling – the Design Development Director at Simplicity Patterns – breaks it down into simple steps that you can do at home. In this class, Deborah shows how to make a fit and flared coat by Leanne Marshall, featuring all of the bells and whistles: lining, princess seams, double collar, and toggles. This coat can be made in two lengths and in a variety of fabric weights for all seasons. Deborah will be with you every step of the way, sharing expert insight from her 35 years of experience at Simplicity Pattern Company.
Outer coat fabric: suitable fabrics are Denim, Lightweight Wools or Wool blends, Linen types, Medium weight Poplin or Sateen. Fabric should be purchased in the yardage amount that corresponds with the size you are sewing and the width of chosen fabric (e.g. Size 10 needs 4 ½ yards of 60” wide fabric). See pattern envelope to determine size and yardage.
Lining fabric: 45” wide and in the yardage amount that corresponds with the size that you are sewing
Interfacing: 2-7/8 yards of 20” to 22” wide medium or lightweight fusible interfacing (weight of interfacing should be appropriate to the weight of the fabric purchased for the coat; e.g. a lighter weight fabric will use a lightweight interfacing)
