I’ve been wanting to make myself a cute sherpa jacket for a while now and when I saw this cute glitter sherpa fabric at Hobby Lobby I knew it was time. Since I made this jacket I’ve found some other options for sherpa suede fabric that are even better {more affordable} options.

In this post I’ll share the pattern and fabric information as well as some of the modifications I made.

First, let’s take a closer look at this fun jacket. This one was made from Rose Gold Sherpa Suede from Hobby Lobby and while it is a bit flashy, it’s pretty fun!

Great sherpa suede fabric options

Here’s a great selection of Sherpa Suede from ETSY. Or make a jacket from a sherpa suede blanket for fabric at a great price, this blanket looks like it would make a great jacket! Or this blanket from Amazon is a great deal too! Now I’m totally wishing I’d just gone the blanket route {haha}

The cozy sherpa collar isn’t really a change to the pattern, but I made sure that the sherpa side of the fabric was exposed on the inside of the collar.

The sleeves ended up to be long so instead of hemming I just zig zagged the raw edge and turned up for a cute cuff. You could always add a cuff with the fuzzy side out as well to get this look.

And of course I made sure that the pocket was super cozy with sherpa fabric. I really love the princess seams and the top stitching on this jacket.

Instead of hemming up the bottom of the jacket I added a narrow sherpa cuff. The zipper stops above the bottom band.

I purchased a gold jacket zipper from The Zipper Lady. It was a good price with super fast shipping. It matches perfectly and was plenty long, but I wish it was a double zipper.
