The Blanca Flight Suit is a semi-fitted, highly customizable boiler suit pattern inspired by vintage workwear. With multiple sleeve and leg options, it can be made in a variety of fabrics and can easily be styled up or down. I was slightly daunted making this pattern as I thought it would be above my sewing level but it was great to sew and Closet Core have some really handy step by step guides on their site.
