Fluffy Frida Fibremood

This is my blogpost about the Frida I have sewn.  https://stannel.blogspot.com/2019/11/fluffy-frida-fibremood.html

A nice pattern!  Fun to sew.  If you want to put lining in it, follow this post:  https://www.beletoile.com/tutorial-bomberjas-voeren/

Adjustments:

- I added 3 cm to front, back and lining front (Even adding 6 cm would be ok, especially when you wear trousers.  When you are wearing it over a dress, the length is fine.).  My zipper was 55 cm long.

-I didn't make the sleeves longer but maybe another 3 cm would make ik more cosy.

-The size is ok, smaller would also fit me.  I was size 40 on the measurement sheet.

Good luck!

Here we give you a classic design, livened up with a modern twist ~ the Frida bomber jacket. Fun fact: bomber jackets were once worn exclusively by the military, whereas now it's impossible to imagine the street scene without them. Which makes sense; it's the perfect piece for styling in multiple ways. Make the Frida in a fun or chunky fabric, leopard print wool or even a faux fur. Either way, Frida will keep you warm and cosy this winter.

Fabric advice

Several different fabric types work well when it comes to making the Frida bomber jacket. From woven wool coating fabric to knit wool (jacquard) jersey. Even sweatshirt fabric, Ponte Roma, scuba and neoprene all make good alternatives. Satin, embroidered fabrics, faux leather and felt also work – each option lends the jacket a totally different look.
