STRETCH FABRIC PATTERN HACK

If you watched the 'What's In the Pattern' video above, you will have seen the 2 jackets I made using stretch fabric.

In the 'Get Creative' section of the tutorial, I outline the changes I made to accommodate this stretch fabric to sew a jacket with gathered cuff & hem.

Please note, this is a woven pattern. As such, i do not provide information on sewing knits.
