Supplies

Fabric (see below)
Matching thread
0.9m (7/8yd) interfacing (similar weight to your fabric)
15mm (5/8in) wide buttons - 6 for hip-length version / 5 for cropped version

Fabric Suggestions

Medium- to heavy-weight woven fabrics that
hold their shape, such as denim, twill, canvas, corduroy, jacquard or wool. For
the prairie collar version, check the fabric is light enough so it can be
gathered once folded in two (or use separate fabric for frill).

Great pattern!

So I managed to obtain the paper version of the pattern (not sure about PDFs, maybe an age thing!). Had this beautiful coloured fabric already, so decided to try. Button holes, collar and mock seams are all new to me. However, what a breeze this pattern is! Really pleased with the result and compliments already received 😊. Really do like TATB patterns, so true to size, for me anyway. I can see more versions of this jacket on the horizon!

Thank you for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed sewing your Sonny Jacket and tackled all those new skills - it looks fab! Love to hear you’re already receiving compliments and planning more versions. Happy sewing! Abi x

I love it. Perfect for what I needed

I have to say i can sew but I easy make mistakes. I need really clear pictures and photos to make anything. I bought some sevenbury apple printed fabric for a spring summer jacket. Where to start? I have lost 4.5 st in weight and I want clothes that I want to wear. I am just waiting for the buttons to arrive but im very happy with something, hopefully no one else has . Thank you Tilly and team buttons

Hi Cat, thank you for your lovely review! Your Sonny is looking gorgeous. So glad it’s helping you make something you'll truly love to wear. Happy sewing! Abi x

Great pattern even for a confident beginner like me

I have made this jacket twice now I loved it that much, I also bought the lining add on which once you get your head round isn't as difficult as you think. A 3rd might be on the horizon. I highly recommend, I have a few of Tilly's patterns and all of her books which I worked through to self learn and made me fall in love with sewing even if I'm not the bestest but I'm still very proud of all my makes.

Thank you so much for this wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear how much you’ve enjoyed sewing the Sonny jacket - twice already! It’s brilliant to hear you tackled the lining add-on too, and even more exciting that a third might be on the way. Keep being proud of your makes... you're doing amazing! Happy sewing, Abi x

Great pattern

I bought both the Sonny jacket and the lining add on. I found the jacket very straightforward but had more problems with the lining. The instructions weren’t very clear but I had never made a lined jacket before. However, I got there in the end and am very pleased with the finished jacket.

Hi Julie, thanks so much for your review! I'm so glad to hear you enjoyed making the Sonny jacket and that you’re happy with the finished result. Lining a jacket can definitely be tricky the first time, so well done for persevering! Happy sewing! Virginija x

Sonny jacket

Excellent instructors and step by step pictures

Hi Caroline, thank you for your lovely feedback! :) I’m so happy to hear you found the instructions and step-by-step photos helpful. I hope you enjoyed making your Sonny jacket. Happy sewing! Virginija x
