Sew a vintage-style topper with the Catskills Jacket! The bias-cut Catskills is inspired by the groundbreaking creations of fashion designer Claire McCardell in the late 1940s. Featuring French darts and grown-on sleeves in cups C-H, the Catskills is unlined and cut on the bias for a deliciously drapey layering piece that was revolutionary in its day.

Choose between full length, bracelet length, or short elasticated sleeves and close it off with your choice of 5 buttons with thread loops or 8 hooks and eyes. Dress up your Catskills in a special silk or dress it down in a casual cotton for a timeless look that never goes out of style.

The Catskills Jacket is a Cashmerette Club x Julie Eilber collaboration.

A Classy Jacket

I haven't had much experience with sewing jackets but this seemed approachable. Again with the great instructions, it was very achievable. I made mine out of a silk satin which had been gifted to me by someone who just wanted it sewn up to something beautiful. I'm glad to report that she really loved the result. I enjoyed learning about some of the historical references which inspired the design of this jacket. It's great worn over a dress or blouse for those functions which require something a bit more dressy. Love my Catskills Jacket!

Easy, Versatile and Fun

Loved the Catskills muslin so much that I didn’t want to wait to purchase new fabric for one to wear. Did a stash dive and came up with a great pointe knit to make my first Catskills Jacket. Since this was a knit I didn’t make this one on the bias. Well, there was the yardage restriction too. ☺️ It came out great. Love it. There will be more. Thinking about boiled wool for this winter, a stretch denim, and a great linen for next spring. My first Club pattern make. Thanks so much for this great pattern.

My first jacket and first time doing French seams

This took me longer to pin on the pattern pieces and sew than I expected. I know I'm not the fastest and maybe measure too much and try to be too precise, baste/tack to ensure I get everything correct. The finished jacket looks lovely. With being short I probably could have done with grading the bottom out because I didn't take any off the length. I don't intend to fasten it so its not a problem.

Great Jacket

I was hesitant to try sewing a jacket on the bias but I told myself I would make each of the club patterns no matter how hard they looked. This pattern has good instructions and it was a breeze to sew together. I made it to match my Elmwood skirt and they look great together. Thanks for another great pattern!

What a surprise

Didn't think this was my style but thought I'd give it a try and I LOVE it. Have worn my first one loads and have a 2nd cut out with a 3rd planned.
That is a great advantage of the club as the patterns are free so encourages me to try new things.
My first I made from tan faux suede with 3/4 sleeves. It is so soft and comfortable and was really easy to make.
My next is a bottle green brushed backed twill again easy to cut out and follow the instructions.
Absolute genius style making me rethink my whole wardrobe.
Than you Jenny & Cashmerette team for inspiring me so much.

I'm not an experienced sewer and have struggled to make any clothes over the last two years. This is mainly due to the number of adjusts required. But I love this pattern I made two jackets last weekend and plan to make a few more with a longer length. It so great to have a pattern you can just start in the morning and finish in the afternoon. I also love the new Grafton dress, but not had cha.ge to start that yet.
