Burda Style For people who sew
Description
Instead of buttons, I created leather loops as closure. It was a bit tedious, but I think it was worth the hard work.

I am almost finished making the Steffi jacket in time for the Fall and would love to make (or buy) a similar leather closure to the one used in your “Marching Band” version. Any suggestions?

Hi Stine,
I made the Leather closure myself and also made a video how to for it. I just did not have a chance to cut it yet since it is a rather long one. It is not hard though and if my video is not up yet by the time you get to the closure I will explain you anyway how to do it….just make sure (if you plan on doing a lining) to set the closure in first.
Good luck
