Style Maker Fabrics' Fall Style Tour 2020 - Outdoor Fun






Fall is here and in Missouri and we are having fall, cool, crisp mornings, warmer afternoons with a chill in the air for the evenings.  This change in the air is just the best and I am loving it, we usually go from 90 degrees to winter!  With this perfect fall weather in mind, my stop on the Style Maker Fabrics' Fall Style Tour is all about outdoor fun.



Michelle and Sharon of Style Maker Fabrics do such an amazing job curating a collection and this fall selection of fabric is so good.  Take a look at the Style Maker Fabrics' Fall collection and you will see what I am talking about. 




If you have followed me for anytime, you know I have a passion for plaid, so I knew plaid would be involved and for outdoors, I wanted a jacket.  Pinterest here I come for inspiration and this was the pin

Style Maker Fabrics' has so many amazing fall plaid flannels, deciding was a bit hard.  I have been so drawn to the mustard color, I went in that direction and picked, this Tartan Plaid in Terracotta, the mustard for the trend and the terracotta is quite trendy, too, making it even better.

This flannel is a bit heavier, good for a jacket  and now it was  time to find a pattern.  Fellow tour member, Lindsey of Inside the Hem helped me find the perfect pattern.  The Paper Cut Stacker Jacket , is a bit relaxed with  drop shoulder and a shorter length.  I did make some changes in the pattern and my interpretation of  the inspiration. 

  1. I eliminated the front yoke
  2. Lengthened the arms by two inches, the pattern envelope looked like the arms were short, I ususally do one inch but felt on this one two was necessary.
  3. Lengthened the body by 1 inch
  4. Deepened the armholes, I felt like the armholes were tight and if this is a layering jacket, I needed room for sweaters and in this case a sweatshirt
  5. I worked on smaller chest pockets and flaps but with the plaid I didn't like the look it was creating so I went with the big patch pockets and cut on them on the bias
  6. Cut the back yoke on the bias
  7. Interfaced the front pieces, back, hems, sleeve hems and the upper sleeve
  8. I also interfaced the pockets and lined them



Now back to the plaid flannel, this has to be one of the nicest flannels I have sewn.  Grain is so straight, perfect weight and sews beautifully, Style Maker Fabrics never disappoints.  I did cut in one layer so I could really control layout and matching.  To match the plaids from front to back and the sleeves to match the body of the jackets. The tutorial I use for this is easy and so doable, Grainline Studio's tutorial and I love the results.  One more thing I had pieces of paper with a "w" for wrong side.  I pinned it on the wrong side just to keep everything straight. 

  See that great line from the back to the sleeve - this just makes me so happy!  


And here the sleeve to the front,





The pattern does include pattern pieces for lining and I used Style Maker Fabrics' Bemberg Lining

To keep with Outdoor Fun theme, I was inspired by this look on Evereve's Instagram.  A hoodie under a jacket is just so fun and I couldn't love the look more.  





Style Maker Fabrics had a great match for my plaid, a Terracotta Eco Sweatshirt Fleece, which is such a perfect sweatshirt fleece, cozy, warm and soft.  Terracotta not quite your color, no worries it comes in 12 colors, I am going to be order more!  The pattern for this is Chalk and Notch Page Hoodie


I made the view with the waistband and added an inch to the sleeves and 1.5 inches to the body.  Note this is cropped version and I am wearing it with my very high waist jeans.


The crop length is very fun and does work well with the jacket






I did make one change on the hood - I didn't want it lined, I wanted that fleece to show, the texture and color are perfect and needs to be shown off.  

To do this I cut a small strip of fabric and stitched it down to cover my center hood seam.  Just look at that fleece, it is so good!



Next I made another pattern piece for the front edge of the hood, enough for the casing and a bit extra just for looks.  Next time this extra could be a bit less

Another view 





Here is a look of the back of the hoodie.  Notice the cocklebur on the back?  Part of taking pictures in the woods!


My husband and I are spending lots of time outside these days and I am excited to wear my garments this fall. 

I hope everyone is enjoying fall weather, fall sewing and fall planning



Here is the full tour, check out all these amazing makes and look what is ahead.  Next stop  is Mainely Menswear  and I can't wait to see what Duane has made.




Disclosure  I am so happy to be part of  the Fall Tour and deeply appreciate the opportunity and the beautiful gifted fabric.  All opinions on this post are mine

My name is Michael DeBruin and I am from the USA, it's been a while since my lover's attitude changed from being the caring type she has been to me, but later turned out not to be caring at all. But not long, I later discovered that my lover was having an affair with someone else. and also she told me she doesn't need me after all we pass through then a friend told me about a spell caster. that with the spell I will get back my woman, I took his cell number then called him and also what's-app him which he reply to me and I did some sacrifices to the spell man and he bought the items for me which he used for the sacrifices and later called me that before 48 hours my love will come back to me and now we are more in love with each other than ever. you can reach him on WhatsApp +2347012841542 or reach him via mail ; emutemple@gmail.com , my lover returned back and broke up with the other guy she was having a relationship with...

  18. Hello guys, I just want to share my joyful experience about HACK VANISH CREDIT SPECIALIST. Before the coronavirus pandemic, I had criminal Judgments, few evictions, and late payment which negatively impacted my credit score down to 487 and left me in difficult financial situation, as a single mum of 3, I needed a loan to keep the family running after I lost my husband as a result of COVID-19, all hope were lost, until Mrs. Olivia referred me to HACK VANISH, a credit genius who was very helpful in fixing my credit 6 days after I reached out to him via Email: hackvanish (At) gmail (Dot) com and Phone: +1(747) 293-8514, throughout the process, I felt so involved because an open line of communication was maintained till I got my FICO score restored to 796, currently my loan application has been approved. If you need to hire a credible hacker, HACK VANISH is highly recommended.
