Blog — Avenir Jumpsuit

Pauline @sewuthinkucan here, fresh off the #SewAJumpsuitChallenge I co-hosted last month with FPC as one of the sponsors. I am delighted to show you not just one, but three easy hacks for the Avenir Jumpsuit. I couldn't resist sharing multiple options for hacking this beautiful jumpsuit. Although I implemented all three hacks, you’re not required to do the same. Feel free to choose and make whichever hack you prefer.

The Avenir Jumpsuit is a great base pattern that lends itself to lots of potential hacks and because of the separate top pattern pieces this sewing hack is super straight forward. In this blog post we show you how to create a puff sleeve scallop hem top. Continue reading to find out how.

The Avenir Jumpsuit can be easily hacked into a dress and I have several I want to make for spring and summer! For this dress I added a neckline flounce, ruffled sleeve hem, and a skirt with a gathered tier. In this post I will walk you through creating new pattern pieces and how to sew them.

The Avenir Jumpsuit is an easy to sew jumpsuit with billowy sleeves and wide legs. It’s almost as comfortable as pajamas but still stylin’ enough to wear to dinner with friends! Elastic gathers the neck and waistline for a comfortable, easy fit. The pattern includes options for long sleeves gathered with elastic or short sleeves.
