Thank you Chelsea. It is so kind that you went to the bother to make these videos. Particularly helpful with the sleeve plackets.

[@radeneschroeder5464]

You are a wonderful teacher and have really boosted my confidence. Plus I just love your upbeat personality- a real joy to watch. Thank you.

[@cindywinkler4172]

Your chill nature makes me confident I can sew now

[@parnissia]

Well, my mind is blown. I am always so jealous of my husband's jackets and shirts that have patch pockets inside, and now I'm totally going to use your pattern and instructions to add some deep interior pockets to my favourite jackets!!

This back pockets are good when you are on a bike. Super accessible while pedalling! Xx

[@FridayPatternCompany]

Oh! I didn't think of that. That is great!

[@MsSusanB]

It was inspiring.

[@elogsews6940]

I just discovered your channel. Very inspiring. I NEED to make a chore coat video 😭. Gotta stop procrastinating 😂😂

[@niroz6579]

Wow this is an awesome jacket! It is my dream to know how to make that jacket!

[@louisesmith6755]

I’d like to see a pair of simple women’s chino style trousers please I love your sew alongs, I’m quite new to dressmaking and I would not have attempted any of your patterns without these sew alongs so thank you so much,

[@ablewod]

Thank for sharing this video. It’s been extremely helpful, while making my way through this project. One question, how do you ensure the buttons line up with the buttonholes?

[@leslierinaldi3131]

Great pattern and video. Question - any suggestions for a hack that would allow for a zipper instead of pockets?? A heavy metal zipper might look really cool and be a nice change up from buttons. Thanks for the excellent instruction.

[@FridayPatternCompany]

That would be cool! I think you would need to remove the integrated placket and then create a facing. I'll add it to my list of ideas for future hack videos!

[@claireabelle4821]

Hi, great videos thank you 😊. I’m just wondering if you sized down for the jacket you made?

[@FridayPatternCompany]

Hello! No, I made a size medium which is generally my size.

[@Melindelicioso]

Is there a video or blog post for a lining?

[@FridayPatternCompany]

Yes! kzbin.info/www/bejne/gX3Vpnuvh9urjJYsi=sOBFbY4x-UOKbtfk

What material is this? :)

[@FridayPatternCompany]

It is an organic cotton canvas!

[@caitlinmaree251]

@@FridayPatternCompany thank you! My boyfriend is begging me to make him one 🤭

[@GypsyNanny]

I was taught if you see your front placket down you do the buttonholes up and down not side to side.

[@FridayPatternCompany]

Generally, buttonholes are sewn vertical on shirts and horizontal on jackets. But it doesn't really matter and you can place the buttonholes whichever way you want!
