Are you one of those people who always delay sewing a coat until later? Well, this winter might just be the perfect time to finally take the plunge! Not only will it make for a fantastic way to kickstart your sewing journey this year, but you’ll also end up with a stunning new coat by the end of it. We’re thrilled to announce that we’ll be hosting a sew-along for the brand-new Chaval Coat pattern starting January 13th and running through January 22nd. Each day will feature detailed photo illustrations along with our trusted, high-quality instructions, plus Liesl’s expert tips to guide you step-by-step through the entire process. By the time the event wraps up, you could very well have a beautiful new coat ready to wear in just over a week.
For those looking for inspiration, Liesl has thoughtfully curated a Pinterest board filled with ideas to help spark your creativity. She’s also shared photos of her own creations—a chic tweed coat and an elegant extra-long navy version—both of which showcase the versatility of the Chaval Coat pattern.
The Chaval Coat is categorized as an Intermediate (three-scissor) level project, ensuring that you’ll pick up valuable new skills along the way. It boasts a classic design with a back walking vent, two-piece sleeves, a traditional notched collar complete with a banana stand, and double-piped front pockets with flaps. This coat is designed to be a staple in your wardrobe, offering timeless style and functionality that will carry you through fall, winter, and even into the early days of spring.
