Sew the ultimate layering piece with the Lorna Pinafore PDF Sewing Pattern!

Lorna is the stylish pinafore you've been waiting for, perfect to wear over tops, blouses and shirts you already have in your wardrobe!

The straight skirt is midi length with a split at the back and slanted pockets. Choose between a curved or straight pocket opening to match the two bodice styles included in the pattern: version 1 is a classic shape with a gently curved neckline, perfect to wear over blouses and shirts; version 2 is a contemporary notched bodice that looks especially great over a simple knit top to show off the sharp lines.

Shaping is created by waist darts on the skirt and on the bodice front. The straps cross at the back in classic pinafore style on all versions and are secured to the back bodice with decorative buttons.

Lorna is fully lined to make sure your pinafore doesn't ride up when worn over tights and to give you the freedom to use many different types of woven fabrics, including denim, needlecord, wool or even brocade if you're feeling fancy!

Have a look at our Lorna Pinterest Board for inspiration and share your pinafore on Instagram with the hashtag #soilornapinafore.

Fabric Suggestions

Medium to heavy weight woven fabrics with some structure, such as denim, corduroy, cotton canvas, brocade, suiting, gabardine and wools. For the lining and pocket facing opt for something lighter such as cotton lawn, viscose or traditional lining fabrics.

Huge thanks to our friends at Sew Me Sunshine who provided us with the petrol blue cotton twill we used for Emily's sample and the moss green needlecord we used for Salma's sample.

What is a PDF pattern?

A PDF pattern is a downloadable pattern that you print yourself at home on A4 or US letter paper.

Choose to add on A0 printing and we will print the pattern on our A0 printers and post it to you so all you need to access digitally is the instruction booklet.

If you're using the A4 or US letter options, simply download, print at home, tape together and let the sewing begin! When you print the pattern, print at 100% (you might have to uncheck the scale box). Print page 1 first, the square should measure 10cm x 10cm.
