//Leo is a modern casual blazer pattern with a simple silhouette, the perfect balance of practicality and style! This pattern is partially lined with a two-button front closure, classic notched collar and lapel, a soft casual shoulder line, long sleeves and generous front patch pockets. Note, this is not a close fitting style. Body and sleeve hem lengths can be easily adjusted using the indication lines provided on the pattern. Leo would make the perfect blazer addition to any sewists wardrobe and is a garment designed to last you a lifetime. Leo is a versatile blazer style, ideal for layering up over light sweaters and shirts, and designed to pair with our Cass Pant for the ultimate relaxed-fitting suit. #TFSLeo

We recommend referring to both the garment measurements and the body measurements when selecting a size, regardless of what size you wear in ready-to-wear clothing. Remember to consider what you will be wearing underneath your blazer when choosing your size. A hand made blazer is a considerable investment and a garment that is designed for maximum longevity in your wardrobe. We strongly recommend sewing a toile (sample garment) in a calico fabric (or similar) prior to cutting your final blazer. This will ensure you have the opportunity to make any alterations in length or fit to the blazer pattern using an inexpensive fabric. Sewing a toile requires additional time, but we consider this time well spent for a project of this type.
Sewing level: Advanced.
