Yesterday, I showed a bunch of modern jacket/coat patterns that are on my short list to be made during the 12-4-12 Jacket Sew-a-long. Today, I want to send out some vintage pattern love.
That first pattern is identical to some of the jackets I have in my 'inspiration folder'. It's gorgeous! I can't find anything like it in my collection, but I don't own any vintage jacket patterns. Perhaps I should be expanding my collection down those lines.
Do you own these pretties? If you do, I am green with envy. I especially love the Vogue 9821! I am thinking about making a jacket with front tie for the vintage sew along but love your long coat version!
Lovely choices. My favorite is Vogue 9821, the long version with the removable scarf. Just fabulous. I also have McCalls 5336; I love the red view, which I believe is A. I noted two of your contemporary choices for my own short list! Thank you for sharing! Linda
Well, I'm not a big vintage fan, but I'm really diggin' the Butterick 4557 pattern. I have some tan cord that has great potential! The others are lovely as well. I'll be watching with interest what you make, though I won't participate in the 12-4-12.

Gorgeous patterns - I love them all!
I love the coat patterns! They are so timeless. My sister has a wine colored velvet 'swing' type coat that she only wears at Christmas -- so special.

All very nice patterns. I like them all.
I love the coats with the ties at the necklines!
Yes, they all ARE delicious!
I love the jacket with the button on scarf and that last dress is just too adorable!
I'm quite partial to the jacket with the button on scarf, too. I have a nice piece of silk tweed I can see made up in that pattern.

Vintage patterns just *ooze* sophistication and glamour.
The McCalls are my favorites.
