La Fred

We are pleased to now carry La Fred patterns.

"Elegant, classic clothing with a contemporary twist."

Notes from Bobbi

I love La Fred patterns for their style, fit and quality. I've made each of these patterns numerous times and always been delighted. The subtle shaping accentuates the good points of almost every body. There are pictures of one of my Athena blouses on this web site. Link: blouse

I urge you to try these patterns.

This semi-fitted high-hip length jacket features princess seams, with the front panel extending into a small pocket at the horizontal sema line. The two-piece set-in sleeves are bracelet length with angled cuffs. The jacket has a convertible collar. View A features the front buttoned all the wway to the top for a Peter Pan effect. View B shows the two top buttons undone, which creates the look of a notched collard. The Maia Jacket is lined.

Sizes from 6 to 26

Bobbi's Note:

This is a wonderful jacket. It looks great on a wide variety of body types. It's also beautifully drafted with all of the pieces working well to make an easy to make and perfect looking jacket.



 This versatile skirt comes in two versions, each with a mid-calf or slightly below the knee length. All skirts feature an angled pocket at the hip and a zipper at the center back. Views A (long) and B (short) are 4-gore skirts, with a flare at the bottom. These flared skirts can be cut on either the straight of the grain or on the bias. Views C (long) and D (short) are straight skirts with a long vent at the center back.

Notes from Bobbi

I've made this blouse at least 10 times and it always comes out great. It's a perfect blouse to embellish as well. A blouse I made featuring this pattern was featured in the 'Total Embellishments Newsletter".

I love these pants. They're roomy and comfortable but have a line that draws the eye up and down. I have seen these on a wide variety of women as well and they always look wonderful.

Notes from Bobbi

La Fred produces great patterns. This princess seamed top comes with directions for moving the princess so it's widest part corresponds with your widest part. She also starts with a C cup under the premise that those with A and B cups are in the minority. Of course she gives directions to enlarge the C if you need that. Fred works to produce patterns that work, and work well. This will be great addition to your classic wardrobe. Or, use this as a jumping off place for your embellishments.

This very loose-fitting, 3/4 length coat features an attached scarf collar that can be worn in many different ways. The scarf can be tied in front, worn over the back, or if your fabric looks good on both sides, it can be worn around the head as a hood. The front closes asymmetrically with 3 buttons. You may choose patch pockets or in-seam side pockets. The wide sleeves are cut all in one with the bodice and have a deep hem so that you may fold back a cuff. Lining is optional.
