Description

Patterns and instructions for changing the style of the Tabula Rasa Jacket with Shirt Variations in sizes XS–3XL. Pattern pieces include a template to transform your basic jacket pattern into a button up shirt or shirt jacket, patterns for a spread and stand-up collar, facings, linings, and a curved cuff to complement the stand-up collar. Please select Print or Digital format. Please note: This product does not include all patterns needed for a full jacket; refer to the original Tabula Rasa Jacket pattern for the front, back and sleeve pattern pieces and for size information. The detailed instruction book includes design tips to sew, stabilize, press and finish shirts. It also contains directions for a variety of design options including a slit hem with a shirttail or faced finish, a rollback sleeve and cuff, and a bonus embellishment technique.

The TRJ Shirt Variations are appropriate for soft or crisp woven fabrics such as cotton shirting, rayon or wool challis, silk twill and blends in light to medium weights. For a lined shirt jacket, you can move into light to medium weight suitings and bottom weight fabrics such as soft tweeds, twills, gabardines and denim.
