Learn simple tailoring techniques while making the Heather Blazer from Friday Pattern Co. You'll go beyond the pattern and learn tips and tricks for creating a really sharp jacket.
From the designer: "
The Heather is an unstructured, modern blazer. This comfortable and stylish jacket has a slightly oversized fit and can be worn in all seasons. It is the perfect editorial layering piece. This pattern is designed to be approachable for the beginner sewist. If you have always wanted to dip your toe into making outerwear but have felt intimidated, this is a great place to start!"
