Tilly and the Buttons Sonny Jacket

Sonny is a multi-version jacket that you can make either utility style with a classic collar or cute and trendy with the frill prairie collar. Our signature step-by-step photo instructions make this a great introduction to sewing outerwear.

SIZE RANGE - UK 6-34 / US 2-30 / EUR 34-62 

SKILL LEVEL - Confident beginner

MODEL GARMENT SIZES - Averil (hip-length blue jacket with oversized collar) is wearing a size 2 (UK 8) and Sophie (cropped colour blocked jacket) is wearing a size 9 (UK 22) graded to a 12 (UK 28) at the waist.

Medium- to heavy-weight woven fabrics that
hold their shape, such as denim, twill, canvas, corduroy, jacquard or wool. For
the prairie collar version, check the fabric is light enough so it can be
