Liberty Kimono Jacket

Anna has made this super stylish Liberty Kimono Jacket using a gorgeous Liberty silk.  This jacket is perfect for a summer evening out.  It can be worn with jeans to create a casual yet smart look.  The shine and drape of the fabric really makes the garment shimmer and hang really beautifully.

The fabric:  It’s called Juno’s Feather and is silk satin which drapes fabulously with a luminous high shine.  It’s edged with some silk left over from another project in a rather pretty colour.  If this silk isn’t to your taste then there are other Liberty silks too.

The Liberty Kimono Jacket pattern:  This jacket was made using a Simplicity pattern number 1318, view D.  There are lots of pattern available so do shop around to find the perfect one for you.  It’s really easy to make with 4 main pattern pieces.  The facing takes a little bit of time to match up but, is again, really simple.
