Layer Up With The Evanston Vest

…. From Love Notions

I was so excited to test this pattern from Love Notions back in January 2025! I always reach for my Evanston vests when the weather gets chilly! I’ve made 3 different versions of the Evanston Vest, 4 total because I just love the cowl on this vest! I even added the Evanston Cowl to the Sloane sweater!! I really LOVE this pattern and I’m sure you will love this pattern too!

The Evanston Vest is on sale today, Friday 1/2/26 for just $6! Remember to use my code 10MACSEWS for an additional 10% off! This is the first time the Evanston has been on sale for just $6!!

The Evanston Vest will be such a versatile addition to your closet! The possibilities are truly endless. Whatever your personal style is~ you’ll be able to make a vest you’ll love! But believe me you won’t make just one!

Today, 2/13/26 isn’t a bad luck day, it’s actually a lucky day because the $6 Friday Pattern is actually 3 patterns! The whole Clef Coat Collection is on sale today, each one just $6 a piece.

I am truly a BIG fan of this pattern, hence why I now have made 6 of them~ plus 2 for my husband! Wow 8 total!! This is such a classic coat that can look entirely different depending upon the fabric you choose. Plus It’s so much easier to sew than you may think!
