		#4-BALBOA PARK Price: $12.00

	This jacket was designed for the lady who likes to use her skills to make something that is especially hers. The open lattice work up the front, down the sleeves and across the back offers many creative opportunities. You could use any assortment of ribbons, braids, fabric tubes or pieced strips. The construction is much easier than you would imagine. These lattice cut lines are placed to draw the eye up the front and out toward the cuff. The back cut line is high enough to draw the eye up and away from the hips and waist. There is a straight kimono style collar that can be fully attached or only partly sewn and left loose to tie. There are also pockets sewn to the inside front (not in the side seams) for easy access and eliminates side seam bulk. This is a good visual design for all figures.

If you don’t want to put in the open lattice, then don’t cut the pattern at the lattice cut line. You now have a clean simply jacket with shoulder and side seams and a back yoke seam: quick-simple-neat and great for creative sewing.

This is a roomy jacket with simple straight lines. Just check side seam measurements and move side seam cut lines in or out as needed. It is just like a graded pattern, but you do it for your personal figure.

I recommend medium weight fabric with a stable weave. Some texture will add nice interest. This jacket could be made from many assortments of cotton, rayon, washed linen, light wools or poly blends. When combining different fabrics in one jacket, think about each fabric and how it will move and drape so when you are done, the jacket feels comfortable when wearing.
