The original Rookery Down design, but in kit form for you to make yourself: Same styling and same luxury details as our Made-to-Order Anson Tunic. Now also available in Plain Black alongside our signature prints.
- Our kit is supplied with matching thread, buttons and a press fastener
- Scrap fabric is included for you to test your stitching on
- All pattern pieces are supplied pre-cut out for you!
- We have also pre-interfaced the pieces that need it
- AND the pesky buttonholes have been pre-sewn and cut for you! Hurray!
There is a step-by-step instruction booklet with clear directions and annotated diagrams. This kit is probably not for absolute beginners but is an intermediate sewing level.
When you have finished sewing, you will have made The Anson Tunic - an easy, semi-fitted style with
- a button fly-front
- gorgeous shell buttons
- shaped seams
- and a notched hem - wear outside trousers or a skirt with confidence that it won't ride up.
The Anson Tunic has
- three quarter length sleeves featuring a notched shape to echo the hemline
- useful, side seam pockets
- a lined, back yoke
- a centre back vent to add comfort with room to move and stretch without adding extra width at hem.
The classic stand collar has an insert space for a one inch clerical collar (supplied).
All printed fabric choices are 100% cotton, poplin from Rose and Hubble. Our plain Black option is a slightly heavier weight cotton with a very subtle, 'slubbed' linen-style texture. If you would like a fabric sample before you buy a kit, please go to our sample request page.
PLEASE NOTE : The Anson Tunic kit is individually cut and collated to order.
Our seamsters only cut the fabric once you place your order- using your size specifications and print choice - we do not hold any kit stock.
As such, if you change your mind, we're very sorry, but we cannot accept any returns or cancellations.Your statutory rights are not affected.
Please allow approx. 10 days for dispatch. When you place your order, we will email you a more definite dispatch date, which depends on how busy our talented team is!
