Buy the Grace Coat sewing pattern from Bella Loves Patterns. Grace is a classic mid-calf, double-breasted coat with a relaxed, straight silhouette. Its main feature is the dolman sleeve with an underarm gusset panel. Topstitching at the collar, shoulders, sleeve hems, centre back seam and belt helps to accentuate the seams. The topstitching can be done by hand or machine. Grace has a bal collar with a collar stand, single button closure at the lapel edge, front welt pockets at the sides, and two poppers at the waist for a clean polished look. Inserted raglan shoulder pads create a beautiful round shoulder line. There is a vent at the centre back for ease of walking. Grace can be worn with or without a belt, which when not worn can be left hanging on a belt loop inside the coat. The coat is fully lined with a set-in sleeve lining. Grace is a timeless coat to keep for life.
