Sept 2025
Welcome to your Sept 2025 Dream Wardrobe.
UK SIZES 6-30
We’ve been hinting for a while, but it’s finally here, and you get the first look. It’s the brand-new pattern from Fabric Godmother, the Arbre Coat! At the start of Autumn, what better than a brilliant coat pattern to start your sewing project for the winter months? This versatile coat can be long, short, lined or unlined, with snap fastenings, or a wrap style front with a tie.
We can’t wait to see your creativity come to life.
About the fabric:
Included this month, you will receive this stunning Boucle coating fabric. Cosy and comfy and perfect for Autumn. You will receive enough fabric to make the short version with the belt tie. If you require extra fabric, check the links below for your matching fabric.

As with most fabrics, we recommend you prewash to remove any dressing and allow for pre-shrinking. A cool wash will be fine; just ensure the temperature you use for prewashing is the same as the temperature at which you plan to wash the final garment. You don’t want your final garment to shrink.
About the pattern:
The arbre coat pattern has two length options - view A is the short version, which finishes at the hip, and view B is the long version, which finishes mid calf. You also have the option to choose between fastening the front opening with press studs or securing the wrap front with a tie belt. The arbre coat pattern is unlined, and we also have a lining add-on pattern available here.
This sewing pattern is designed for adventurous beginners and intermediate sewers. The Arbre coat pattern features an angled back yoke seam, with a wrap-front placket. It also has a two-piece sleeve which connects to the body with a raglan armhole. You can also choose from interior seam finishing techniques or add the optional lining pattern.
