Tilly and the Buttons Sewing Pattern - Sonny Jacket
Sew the Perfect Jacket with the Sonny Sewing Pattern!
Meet Sonny, your new go-to jacket pattern that’s as versatile as it is stylish! Whether you're after a classic utility look with a pointed collar or a trendy prairie style with a frilled oversized collar, Sonny gives you all the options to make a jacket that suits your vibe. Designed with Tilly and the Buttons' signature step-by-step photo instructions, this pattern is perfect for those new to sewing outerwear and will guide you through every stitch with ease.
Sonny features a boxy fit bodice, drop shoulders, and princess seams that create gentle shaping at the bust for a flattering silhouette. With options for optional chest pockets and flaps, plus a choice of hip-length or cropped hemlines, you can truly customize your jacket. The mock flat-felled seams provide a durable finish, while the easy-to-sew straight sleeves make the sewing process a breeze. Whether you're layering up for cooler weather or adding a statement piece to your wardrobe, Sonny is sure to become your favorite make!
