Rated 5 out of 5

I like this one because it is very versatile. There are so many different options for the neckline, fastenings, length, trim, etc. that this pattern could well make up a whole wardrobe of Regency jackets. Also, the instructions were very sensible and the pieces fitted together perfectly. I love the way the back looks. The diamond shape is beautiful and, of course, authentic. My only hint is to make sure that the gathering on the sleeve rests at the shoulder-line; otherwise, the sleeves may look baggy. This pattern was very easy and a perfect starting point for my second sewing project. I am very pleased with the result.

As with all of Mrs. Chancey’s patterns, this is a pattern that I will recommend and use over and over again. It has clear directions. It was easy to grasp even some of the harder points of this garment’s construction. I highly recommend this pattern to sewers of most levels. Beginners may find it a little difficult and need to seek help.
