Cropped White Faux Fur Jacket

Since the last time I worked with faux fur.. It was quiet long ago. It is not that easy..nor difficult but surely tricky to work with. Especially if you have a respiration problem though. I don't have one but the fur fly all over the place. Stuck on everywhere. I cough alot coz I breath it. A bit of a nightmare... I couldn't wait to finish the work. Today I would like to share my "crop faux fur jacket" project with very simple pattern.

STEP 1 : When you lay your pattern..make sure you do it on the wrong side of the fabric. Otherwise you end up cutting out the fur. Also.. notice where the fur nap direction. They need to go to the same direction. Check this link if you need more explanation :http://www.ehow.com/how_2106522_cut-sew-fake-fur.html

STEP 2 : After you cut all.. start to put all the pieces together. Like puzzle ;). Remember to sew from the wrong side of the fabric. Trim the fur all along the seam allowance before you set down on your machine. Otherwise will hard for the machine to work when it's too bulky.

STEP 3: Construct the lining with the same pattern. I always use this method for lining the jacket : http://www.threadsmagazine.com/item/4366/bag-your-jacket-lining

Final look of my cropped jacket. With bell shape sleeves. Not bad..eh?!

Fur jacket always nice with wide collar ^.^
