Chiono Jacket Class
Chiono Jacket Class in Two Styles
In this class, you will learn the beginner level of sewing apparel, reading an apparel pattern, altering the pattern to fit you, methods for finishing seams, and you will leave with a jacket well on its way to completion.
WHAT'S THE PATTERN ABOUT?
A sewing pattern to make a casual box style quilted jacket with pockets and optional ties. By quilting the pieces before joining fabric (I.E. there is no separate lining), the jacket sews up quickly, and can be done as a warmer jacket with thicker padding or thinner wadding for a summer jacket. The Chiono Jacket can also be made from a pre-existing quilt or cut from quilted fabric. The full length sleeves are extra long to allow them to be rolled up for that extra casual toasty feeling.
