A classic peacoat with modern options, this design is the perfect introduction to menswear tailoring as the detailed instructions will help you create a beautifully finished coat even if you are intimidated by sewing outerwear. The design includes a narrow double breast that sits nicely both buttoned and open.

Various details can be left out or included such as: epaulets, lined patch pockets, pocket flaps, an interior patch pocket, a removable hood (using buttons), and sleeve tabs.

This design is easy to fit with an optional slimming front dart and a center back seam. Few body panels make it relatively simple to sew and it is fully lined with detailed instructions on how to insert the lining and hand-sew the hems.

The Goldstream Peacoat would suit everything from a classic navy wool with fouled anchor buttons to a rustic tweed with leather closures.

This pattern, as part of the Parkland Casual Collection, is a modern slim-fitting design with athletic sizing. It is a classic garment that lends itself to creating the perfect casual, hand-made wardrobe for an active lifestyle.

Recommended fabric

Medium to heavy weight wools such as gabardine, tweed, hounds-tooth, worsted wool, boiled and especially any wool labeled "coating." Choose a weight that your machine will be comfortable handling. 

Lining: Lightweight lining fabrics such as silk, polyester or rayon lining. For a warmer coat, choose soft, medium weight fabrics such as flannel, quilted lining materials, or brushed cotton. Consider using slippery materials for the sleeves and warm fabrics for the body. 

Interfacing: Medium to heavy weight fusible or sewn-in interfacing. If your wool is very textured and fusible interfacing will likely have difficulties fusing to it, choose sewn-in interfacing to baste to the interfaced pieces.

Both Classic and Casual Variations:

• Two (2) 1/2"-5/8" shoulder pads
• Six (6) 1" buttons (for front closure)
• Classic Variation: Four (4) 1/2" buttons for epaulets and sleeve tabs
• Casual Variation: Six (6) 1/2" buttons to attach hood and lapels to the main coat
