Positive Space Jacket

€15,95
Tax included. Shipping calculated at checkout.

The answer to “I have nothing to wear” for a fancy evening out or a big day at the office. The collar, raglan sleeve and front shaping frame your face beautifully. The statement collar is your canvas for quilting or embroidery fabulousness. Bracelet-length sleeves show off a watch or bangle. A special button makes the perfect closure. Plus pockets? Of course!

The Positive Space Jacket works best with woven fabrics that have a stiffer or crisper hand, such as brocades, damasks and satins, silk dupioni or shantung. It also works well with lighter upholstery fabrics or wool suitings with a firm hand. For outerwear fabrics, such as wool coatings or tapestries, size up. 

Make the collar out of the same fabric or go lighter or heavier. Or make the jacket out of a plain fabric and splurge for a collar out of pretty but expensive fabric - the collar only takes half a yard or meter.

See the fabric requirements for full details.

Will probably use parts of the Jacket pattern again

It took a long time to decide if I even wanted to make the Positive Space Jacket pattern. Why?

STYLE: (2 STAR) I am not fond of the collar style or the raglan sleeve. But I saw the Poppy sample and decided I could make it without the collar.

FIT: (3.5 STAR) The reason I did get it was because of the overall fit of the Gorgeous Godet top. Finally, there is a pattern company designing with the mature figure in mind. This is the ONLY Jacket pattern available from Style Falcon. The bodice fit pretty well.
1) However, the SLEEVES (my eternal fitting problem) are difficult to adjust. My arms twist and the sleeve is giving me three draglines in front. The underarm of the sleeve is too low for me too. I am working on those issues and getting closer to a resolution. I wonder if a jacket pattern with a fit in sleeve from Style Falcon would be better for me.
2) My upper BACK is more rounded than the pattern allows for. I added upper back length adjustments, then had to compensate by subtracting length at the waist for swayback. Those adjustments are common for me and I must say that they were easier to adjust on this pattern than patterns from the big 4.
3) The Overall Jacket Front and Back SIZING is way better than I normally get from big 4 patterns.

I am GLAD I bought this pattern, even with the necessary adjustments. When I finish adjusting and changing the pattern to fit me, I will probably use it again.

Thank you for this feedback, Jo. It sounds like you were able to make some adjustments for your fit preferences. I'm happy to help you sort out any remaining fitting issues if you'd like.
