1940s Princess House Coat with Hood Sewing Pattern Bust 40

This charming housecoat features a timeless princess seam design with practical
front patch pockets, a versatile collar that can be buttoned up to the neck or left
open, and sleeves that are beautifully gathered and cuffed at the wrist. For added
flair, it even includes a detachable hood.

Originally designed as a wartime pattern, this cozy garment was perfect for chilly
nights, especially when heading to and from the air-raid shelter. Its princess
panelled style makes it wonderfully adaptable, allowing you to create it from
materials like old blankets or curtains, an ideal example of ‘make do and mend’
creativity!

Fabric suggestions to bring this design to life include flannel, velour, blanket
cloth, or even furnishing fabric for a unique touch.
