With its three-quarter length sleeves and relaxed, straight cut, it offers great comfort. For an even more summery version, you can sew it sleeveless. You'll love it.
The blouse version is shorter. For us, it's an everyday essential ; it pairs perfectly with high-waisted jeans or shorts for a relaxed yet polished look. Its meticulous finishing touches—facings and neckbands—make it as enjoyable to sew as it is to wear.
👉 Our little tip for Claire: you can add ruffles to the front if you want a more romantic touch.
🧵 The pattern for the barn jacket: Marie
The Marie jacket is so beloved because it's inspired by barn jackets, offering a style that's both practical and feminine. Barn jackets were once worn by American farmers.
Marie reinvents this classic piece with modern lines, a zip fastening , contrasting trims, and options so you can style it exactly how you like. A jacket you'll love, both for its style and its versatility.
We love it in the mid-season or summer , sewn in a lightweight fabric. But the Marie jacket can be lined to make it a winter jacket. A style that will therefore be with you all year round.
You can choose to add a drawstring at the waist to cinch it, or leave it with a straight cut if you prefer a more casual look .
👉 Our little tip for the Marie jacket: the pockets can be sewn inside (like traditional versions of barn jackets) or outside for a more assertive style.
👖 The pattern for loose-fitting trousers or overalls: Anaïs
For this pattern, you have the choice between two distinct versions. Anaïs is a pattern that can be made into either trousers or overalls . Both versions are inspired by the design of barrel jeans . If you're not familiar with these jeans, they are wide-legged trousers, tapered at the ankles, with a high waist that beautifully structures the silhouette. This style of trousers has been revived by urban fashion.
While these pants are perfect to wear throughout the year, their high waist and side cutouts make them an essential piece for the summer season , ultra-comfortable to wear thanks to their airy shape.
This pattern is also ideal for playing with contrasting fabrics, for example by creating a patchwork, thanks to its side panels . It's perfect for upcycling old jeans for a unique result.
The overalls version offers a bolder, more assertive piece . Its buttoned bib adds a unique touch. A piece you won't be able to live without, perfect with a pretty t-shirt in summer, or layered with a sweater when the weather calls for it.
