Seeking Pattern Suggestions A peacoat for a little boy
Michelle L   Intermediate MO USA Member since 1/20/08 Posts: 1293	Login to reply to this post Like this post Date: 6/6/11 9:57 AM I know next to nothing about patterns for kids, but my nephew has asked me to sew him a peacoat (just like his dad's). Does anyone know where a pattern might be had? There is a blazer pattern available from Burda which I suppose I could redraft the front, but that is not an entirely appetizing prospect! I don't know anything at all about childrens patterns, except for the occasional shirt that I sew for the little guy. ------ Michelle http://cheapandpicky.blogspot.com/

I will check out the Oliver+S pattern...He is 10, but he is so skinny I use smaller patterns and just lengthen them for him. ------ Michelle http://cheapandpicky.blogspot.com/

You might try the Burdastyle site to see if they chose one to offer as a downloadable pattern. I noticed it because I want to make one for my grandson when he is a bit older. ------ www.nancyksews.blogspot.com

The Oliver and S School Days coat is a duffle and only goes up to size 8, which he already is. I found This Burda girls one but I don't see why it couldn't be for a boy too. Obviously without the ruffle.after all, aren't pea coats unisex? There is a cute one by independent company Oliver and Olivia but it also only ones to size 8. I also have been burned by these small pattern makers, so I'm hesitant. ------ Melanie
