Rachel here again, I’m one of the Shannon Fabrics Brand Ambassadors and can’t wait to show you another pdf pattern that got the [Luxe Cuddle](http://www.shannonfabrics.com/luxe-cuddle?view=all)® treatment. I’ve had the [Ollie Bomber Jacket pattern](http://www.sewalittleseam.com/product/ollie-bomber-jacket-pdf-pattern/) from Sew a Little Seam since it released last year, but never got around to actually finishing one. I knew it would be the perfect match for one of our [Luxe Cuddle](http://www.shannonfabrics.com/luxe-cuddle?view=all)® fabrics, and this [Luxe Cuddle® Fawn Cappuccino](http://www.shannonfabrics.com/cuddle-sup-reg-sup/embossed/luxe-cuddle-sup-reg-sup-fawn-br-cappuccino) has been begging to be made into something special. We live on a property in NJ that is adjacent to a large forest area, and deer are a daily sighting here (along with turkeys, groundhogs, and the occasional fox). Miss P asked me to make her a deer jacket, and after I had her promise not to go wandering in the woods in this one ;) I prepped my pattern and got to work. The[Ollie pattern](http://www.sewalittleseam.com/product/ollie-bomber-jacket-pdf-pattern/) includes directions for a lined and an unlined version, and since I wanted this to be a lightweight layer that Miss P could wear on chilly mornings, I left it unlined. This made it a super fast sew, too! The backing of the [Luxe Cuddle](http://www.shannonfabrics.com/luxe-cuddle?view=all)® is thick and smooth, so it makes a great inside of the jacket. I used a small piece of single fold bias tape for the neckline seam, and stabilized the collar with a small piece of knit interfacing. I used a separating sport zipper since I wanted the zipper to be a little more substantial with all of the Luxe Cuddle fabric, and it worked great. I topstitched the zipper in place and then just pulled some of the longer fibers from the seamline - [Luxe Cuddle](http://www.shannonfabrics.com/luxe-cuddle?view=all)® is very forgiving and will hide your stitches so just sew slowly and lengthen your stitch a bit (I use about a 4mm length to topstitch on Cuddle®) to avoid needing to seam rip anything! This was a quick project with big results. The fit is perfect and Miss P feels cozy, warm, and stylish. The pattern also comes in women’s sizes so I’ll be making one for myself next - as soon as I pick my favorite [Luxe Cuddle](http://www.shannonfabrics.com/luxe-cuddle?view=all)® to use!
