The September Overcoat Sewing Pattern: Effortless, Oversized Style for Every Season
Meet The September, the ultimate oversized coat that combines the best of both a classic overcoat and a casual duster. Designed for those who stride through life with purpose, this versatile coat can be made lined or unlined, making it perfect for layering in any season. Choose from sturdy fabrics like oilskin or wool for a proper winter coat, or opt for a lighter linen to create a laid-back, casual throw-on that works just as well in warmer weather.
With its relaxed fit, clean lines, and chic simplicity, The September is perfect for adding both warmth and style to your wardrobe. Whether you're strolling through town or taking on the countryside, this coat is your go-to for effortless, everyday elegance that’s as functional as it is fashionable. A must-have for sewists looking to create a statement piece that works year-round!
September's Features:
• Oversized, relaxed fit for a stylish, easy-to-wear silhouette
• Option to make lined or unlined for versatility across seasons
• Can be made as a winter coat with heavier fabrics or a casual throw-on with lighter fabrics
• Wide, comfortable sleeves and large, easy-to-wear design

Skill level - intermediate.
Fabric suggestions - dry oilskin, oilskin, mid - heavyweight linens, 7 - 12oz denim, wool, corduroy, cotton twills or canvas. A heavier weight cloth will result in a more structured coat. For the lining, we'd suggest using Barrier Lining if you are using oilskin. You could also use cotton voile, lightweight linen, cotton poplin, hemp/cotton, lightweight wools or a traditional slip lining.
Notions:
Matching thread.
Buttons - 5 x 2cm/3/4".
Interfacing (optional but recommended for most fabrics) - 1.3M/1.5YD.
