From Helen's Closet:
THIS IS A PATTERN EXPANSION PACK.
THE ORIGINAL WILDWOOD JACKET AND VEST IS REQUIRED TO MAKE THIS PATTERN.Add a collar or hood to the Wildwood Jacket or Vest! Options include a rounded collar or a classic hood. This expansion pack also includes new shoulder/neckline pattern pieces to add to your existing Wildwood back and front pattern pieces. These are necessary in order to attach the collar or hood. The instruction booklet includes updated fabric requirements, cutting layouts, and instructions for sewing the collar or hood. You can sew a Wildwood jacket or a vest with either a collar or a hood.
Note: This expansion is intended for use when sewing a Wildwood Jacket or Vest from start to finish, not for adding a collar/hood to a completed Wildwood.
Recommended Fabrics: Light to mid-weight fabrics with no stretch (3-6 oz) for both the outer fabric and the lining. Cotton, flannel, linen, wool, and hemp are all good choices. Use the batting of your choice for the middle layer. If you are using cotton and polyester batting, the vest/jacket will be washable and dryable. Silk or wool batting will need to be hand washed or washed on a gentle cycle. Pre-quilted fabric is also a great option for Wildwood.
Sizes: 0-34 (up to a 60″ chest and 62″ hip)
