GET INSPIRED #SewingSonny
I made 3 sonnies so far for me and my mum and two for kids. It's a more advanced pattern but very well explained as always with tillys patterns. Depenting on the fabric you choose, you can get many different jackets ❤️
Hi Neli, thank you so much for your lovely review! It’s fantastic to hear that you've made multiple Sonnies for both yourself and your family. We're so glad you found the pattern well-explained and versatile. You're absolutely right - depending on the fabric, the jacket can take on so many different looks! Happy sewing, and we hope you enjoy making many more! Virginija x
Loved making this jacket and the instructions were clear and easy to follow. The simple steps always mean for me, the garment takes on shape quickly making the wait between sewing sessions almost unbearable as all I want to do is sew it up and wear it immediately! I was gifted the book of mini makes and I’m going to make my daughter her own jacket!
I loved making this jacket, well 2 actually. One unlined for myself and one lined for a surprise birthday present for my niece. The instructions were so easy to follow with pictures as well at each stage. I found this really helpful. I have bought another pattern, it's in my to do pile.
First time making a lined jacket and the instructions were very clear and easy to follow. I placed my pockets lower down than the pattern. I’m really pleased with the finished result and it fits perfectly.
Great boxy jacket. I made this for my mom and we used the finished measurements to determine size and she did not want it oversized. I measured her to be between a 7 & 8, but sewed up the size 5 for her. There is a mistake in the instructions on part 21 - for imperial seam allowances. It says to sew up one front by 5/8, than around the collar at 3/8 and then down the other front by 3/8 (this last 3/8 is the error, it should be 5/8). I sewed buttons (but not buttonholes) to the pockets too, if I were to make this again I would sew the buttonholes on before attaching the pockets to the jacket front. I used a 7oz denim that is almost a chambray from a US store called JoAnn's.
