The testers' Billy & Betty bomber jackets

The testers' Billy & Betty bomber jackets

It's finally time to show you the amazing bomber jackets sewn by our testers when we designed our Billy & Betty pattern. 

For those who are unfamiliar with this part of our quality process: before releasing a new pattern, we always let 30-50 testers sew the pattern in their child's size (always based on the child's current measurements and the pattern's size guide). The testers send us photos of the finished garment and give us valuable and detailed feedback about everything from the fit of the pattern to the instructions in the tutorial. We ask them to have very high standards and expect nothing but the best from our patterns! :) We can then make adjustments and improve the pattern and tutorial before its release.

Anyway, when testing Billy & Betty, it was really amazing to see the testers' variants. The pattern itself has lots of options, but on top of that, the testers created really unique garments with their own design ideas and fabrics.

Enough talking, let's look at them! These are most, but not all of the testers' photos ;) Here they are in order of size, starting with the smallest and working our way up to the largest size.
