How to sew a Maali jacket
Introducing Maali, the mid-season jacket for all your outfits. With its ribbed cuffs and hem, it looks like a college bomber, but it all depends on the fabric you choose. Lined for a beautiful finish and with piped pockets, it'll keep you and your hands warm. You can decorate the front with patches and embroidery, or make it two-tone or two-material. Take your time with this piece, it's well worth it.
Admittedly a little difficult, it will be a 2/3-day project, depending on the time you have, and we recommend that you have already sewn a lined jacket, with or without piping, for ease of use. Otherwise, don't hesitate to watch the video several times, but also to review the tutorials for the Uma coats, the Sissi jacket or the Hendriks trench coat to help you!
For a little autumnal flair, we've chosen a fabric and lining in the same tones as the collection, with a wool-blend fabric from Sacrés-Coupons. However, you can opt for flatter, lighter materials if you're considering Maali as a spring jacket! Denim or corduroy would be perfect. Otherwise, opt for a moumoute-type fabric or a boiled or flat wool to beat the cold. A cotton twill would also be great for a first jacket.
To sew Maali, you'll need :
-1m80 of 140cm fabric or 2m40 of 110cm fabric,
-1m50 lining in 140cm width or 2m10 lining in 110cm width,
-a little fusible webbing,
-ribbing,
-8 buttons or 20mm snaps.
