The Pattern Stash - Sarah Webb's Regency Inspired Jemima Waistcoat
When I heard about Fabworks’ new pattern range, The Pattern Stash, I had to chuckle to myself; I already have a HUGE pattern collection, as you can see. However, I can’t resist having a look at what is new out there!

How To Choose Your Fabric: Jemima Waistcoat
The Jemima waistcoat is a classic ladies waistcoat sewing pattern with the option of contrasting collar and pocket details. Princess seams add feminine curves to this classic garment, and the multi-panelled construction allows creative freedom to play with lots of different fabrics. After all that is what Fabworks is about … fabric!
Jemima Waistcoat Launch!
Forget the dreary, dark, masculine shapes of a traditional waistcoat and think flare, colour and texture. With this ladies semi-tailored sewing pattern that features feminine, flattering, fitted princess seams front and back with uniquely shaped contrast pockets, lapels and a centre back jigger.
Thistledown Marl as a Cocoon Jacket
Heart of Huddersfield's Thistledown Marl plus the Cocoon Jacket, equals a perfect afternoon sewing session!
I wanted to create a garment that was casual and comfortable but also classic in style and in the end I chose the Sew Different’s Cocoon Jacket because I think it suits this fabric and has enough structure to hold the sculptural shape of the cocoon, whilst still being fluid and drapey enough to create a soft jacket. This one will be ideal for popping on in winter with a roll neck and jeans!
