Fayma Patterns - Woodland Walk Jumper






Fayma Patterns reached out to me to try one of their patterns.  I took a look at their website and the pattern information and said, yes, please, I would love to try one of your patterns.



What is Fayma Patterns?  Do know the links are affiliate links and I will receive a commission if a pattern is purchased.   Well......

Bespoke sewing patterns that take into account all the unique features of your figure.

Pattern-making skills not required.

Each design made from scratch, just for you!

Check out their About Page for more information.

Yes, each pattern is made for you based on the unique measurements for you.  I selected the Woodland Walk Jumper and to get started measuring you have to download the Fayma App.  I did set up an account online when purchasing the pattern and then logged into it on my app once I realized I needed to do the measurements in an app.




The measurement process is easy to use, each measurement comes with a short diagram or video to help with the process.  Also, during the measurement process, the app will instruct you on how to stand and a photo is taken, from the front and side.  

I did measure myself but I would recommend to have a friend or family member measure you for accuracy.  My Fayma Woodland Walk Jumper isn't a close fitting garment so measuring myself in this case was fine.  I did have issues with measuring my arm for sleeve length.  The app would continue to tell me it wasn't in the correct parameters.  I just went with a measurement that was in the parameters.  When I printed off the pattern, I measured the sleeve length and sleeve band to double check. It was short so I added length.



When you download you pattern, each pattern piece comes in its own file.  So that means, you are clicking and printing several times to get all the pattern pieces printed off.  Make sure you keep track of what you have printed.  From a friend making a Fayma pattern, if you send the pattern off to be printed, combine all these files or you will be charged extra.



Time to start working on the Woodland Jumper and it makes sense but I was initially surprised by this, you will have an individualized piece for everything.  Like left sleeve band, right sleeve band, right hood, left hood, etc.  I did compare the left and right side, which were the same but I can see in cased when the might be a bit different.  The back is all one piece, which I folded in half to check.  Mine was the same on each side, so I cut on the fold.



More interesting things since this is a made for you pattern, the fabric requirements are ranges as are the notions.  My pattern called for a range of zipper, I went with a white 36" one (ordered from Wawak), which was one I could find easily.  It was too short but I was okay with just not making it run the full hem band.  So my advice if making this Woodland Walk Jumper would be to wait on the zipper until you can measure your pattern pieces for the correct size.  


Photo shows how the zipper is a bit too short but works for the style.



Now to construction, I had 43 pages of instructions for this Woodland Walk Jumper, that is so many.  Some parts do have a few ways to do a detail, for instance the hood had options on completion.


I did do my hood differently than Fayma's instructions, I wanted to add some white binding to tie in the white zipper.  

all photos have been enhanced in the color to see the details




I covered the center seam on the hood with white ribbing, basted that ribbing in place and used my coverstitch to put in place, the decorative part of the coverstitch shows on the right side of the hood.  I did this for the front of the hood also.  Photos in sequence of the description





I did make a mistake on my Woodland Walk Jumper but when I realized my mistake, I was fine with my outcome.  The pattern has a zipper guard and I did it on both sides of the zipper, it is only on one side.  While looking at this and deciding if I was going to change it, I really liked how the guard frames the zipper.  Plus, I am never going to zip this up, so the symmetry was pleasing to my eye.


I did use the matching binding to cover the seams on the front band for a clean finish on the inside





Let's talk fabric, I went with June and Lu's Chauteau Gray See You at Six French terry with matching ribbing which is such an amazing fabric.  So soft and a dream to sew.  I do find the color interesting, sometimes it looks gray, sometimes, greige (beige and gray) and sometimes it has a bit of a lavender hue.  The Woodland Jumper takes time to sew and a decent amount of yardage (I ordered 4 yards of the French Terry and have plenty leftover) so I wanted a nice neutral color which would look great in spring and fall.  I think this is when I will wear it the most.



I love, love, love my finished garment, the style is such a fun and trendy garment. I think the fit through my shoulders and chest is perfect, when zipped it is a great fit.  



I think this is a great concept for patterns and takes many steps out of the fitting process.  Just know it does take a bit more time in preparation from the measuring to pattern printing, taping and you do have to label each piece from a chart in the instructions.  I would suggest reading the pattern instructions thoroughly a couple of times.  I didn't do the front band as per the instructions, which is the front of the jacket, connected to the hood and back down the other front.  It was totally confusing to me and I was happy I had changed my hood construction but on the last page I finally figured out what the were trying to tell me!



Disclaimer -I received this pattern as a gift for a blog post and IG post, the opinions are all mine.  If you click on a link, it is an affiliate link and I will receive a commission if you purchase the pattern
