Update 3/1/22: The Kimball Bomber Jacket pattern is now only available at the All Access level of the Cashmerette Club.

Kick off your 2022 style with the Kimball Bomber Jacket—the ideal bomber jacket sewing pattern for curves—available for as little as $9 when you join Cashmerette Club!

Earlier today, we shared the big news: we’re starting Cashmerette Club, a virtual sewing club, and you’re invited! Join Jenny on a monthly journey to sew your own wardrobe that fits, with exclusive patterns, fitting masterclasses, and live events every month. (And if you sign up for our All Access tier in February, you’ll get 25% off for the year!)

We wanted to start Cashmerette Club off right with a fantastic pattern, and here it is: the Kimball Bomber Jacket! This curve-friendly take on the classic bomber jacket is available to Cashmerette Club members in sizes 0-32 and cup sizes C-H. Let’s dive in and learn all about this new pattern.

The Bomber Jacket Sewing Pattern for Curves

Say hello to the Kimball Bomber Jacket! If you have big boobs, bomber jackets are often either too tight through the chest, or overly baggy in order to accommodate your curves. But of course this is a Cashmerette pattern, which means you can get an awesome fit not just at the bust, but everywhere!

The Kimball Bomber Jacket has thoughtfully placed bust darts for fantastic shaping, as well as cup sizes from C-H so you can get a great fit, no Full Bust Adjustment required. It has a slightly relaxed fit through the shoulders and back so you get the classic bomber jacket look, but is neat through the bust and shoulders so you’re not overwhelmed with fabric.

Other features of the Kimball Bomber Jacket include awesome quilted sleeves (fabulous in a contrasting fabric!), a clean-finish faced zipper, and handy angled zipper pockets.

Sew up your Kimball in a mid- to heavy-weight woven fabric such as such as duck cotton, canvas, sateen, brocade, jacquard, or a wool blend. Finish off your neckline, sleeves and hem with ribbing (either tubular or by the yard) or a heavy knit fabric like ponte. (Prefer knit bombers? No problem! The Kimball will work well in heavy knit fabrics like scuba or ponte too).

For the fancy quilted sleeves, you’ll also need some batting or wadding material such as Warm and Natural cotton or polyester batting. If you’ve never made quilted sleeves before, this is a fabulous first project to give this technique a try! We’ve included specific instructions on how to do this, so we’re here to help you every step of the way. And you don’t need any special tools or machine for this, although having a walking foot can be helpful.

The inside seams of the Kimball are bound with bias tape for a clean, professional finish. You’ll want to show everyone how gorgeous your Kimball looks, both inside and out!
