The oversized coat looks like a sofa blanket casually thrown over and offers a lot of living space, both inside and outside in the large patch pockets. The loden is not serged, the edges, the back neck hole and the pocket edges are trimmed with bright pink bias tape as an eye-catcher. The hem edges and sleeve hems end with so-called „rough edges“: unserged and unhemmed.
If you use a fabric that frays a lot, be sure to serge it. Woolen loden is extremely strong, and the collar and facing are made without interlining. For softer wool fabrics, be sure to use adhesive interfacing for the pattern pieces.
🪡 Sewing level: Advanced hobby tailors
💡 The Zero Waste coat sewing pattern is from the German-language book „Zero Waste beim Nähen“ by author Stefanie Kroth
Zero waste in sewing: We should make the best possible use of fabric as a valuable resource and ideally manage without waste. This works with a slightly different cut, clever design ideas and a sporty laying technique.
What is special about the zero waste design process?
The design process involves the fabric much more and the design and pattern are closely interlinked from the very beginning. I often make paper models, drape them on the mannequin or on the 3D avatar.
