All seam allowances are 1.5cm unless stated otherwise and are included in the pattern.
Fabric Suggestions – 8-12oz denim, cotton twill or canvas, corduroy. For a softer look and feel you could try a mid weight linen or tencel/linen blend.
For the facings we would recommend either a cotton muslin or a slip viscose lining.
