 We have already tested Vogue V1714 and turned it into a red brocade jacket. But we definitely wanted to use this sewing pattern an other time more, for other fabrics.

 Authentic couture Chanel jackets are priceless. This is not surprising because they are exclusively tailor-made for the rich and famous.

A Chanel-Style jacket for the colder evenings or just for during the day if you need to look representative. The Burda 8949 is a classic and one of our favorite sewing patterns.
