Burda 6898 Teal Corduroy Jacket

 



This is my latest project, a lined corduroy jacket with welt pockets and sleeve vents. Its been a lot of work.

I made View B, shortened to the length of View A. The pattern only has a half lining which I changed to be a full lining. I also made the sleeves wider in the bicep to accommodate my chunky arms.



The instructions for View B were not particularly good, and as I had made a full lining that changed the construction too.

Unlike Burda magazine, in this pattern the seam and hem allowances are included 1.5 cm (5/8") and 4cm (1 1/2")
