Six Panel Jackets

Joyce designed this unlined jacket pattern to use a combination of commercial and handwoven fabrics. Much of the handwoven fabric in the featured jackets is textured plain weave, a 4 shaft, 6 treadle structure. Note that some of the jackets below have the A panels cut from handwoven fabric and the B panels from commercial fabric, while others are reversed.

All of these jackets are from the pattern "Six Panel Jacket" available on this website.
