The Paynter
$26.00 – $32.00Paynter Jacket Co. make limited edition jackets four times a year that are made to order, so there’s no waste from over production. Their jackets are classic pieces that will stand the test of time and get better with age. The Field Jacket is Paynter’s first make-your-own jacket pattern in collaboration with Merchant & Mills.
All paper patterns will include two woven labels, one is to be positioned inside the jacket near the hip and the other is a smaller label for the back neck. The larger label has been designed by @hello.ludio. Lucie’s design features the sun and the moon to represent time and getting lost in the practice of making. These labels are only available in the paper pattern, not PDF, and won’t be sold elsewhere.
Need sewing help? We have made a You Tube video that takes you through the two trickier steps of the Paynter pattern, the placket and the hip pockets. You can view that video here.

Embroidery Add On
$8.00A PDF pattern for the front panel of the Honey dress.
The design is by Evie May Adams, and the embroidery for this sample was beautifully stitched by Becky Hogg.
For our version we used No 712 DMC Stranded Cotton x 2 with a No 7 embroidery needle. There are various methods you can use for transferring the design, which we’ve listed in the download. For our version we printed the design onto tracing paper, then covered the tracing paper in lots of layers of tailor’s chalk, this way you just draw over the reverse on the cloth and it pushes the chalk onto the cloth.

The Lilian
