On Deck Popover Sewing Pattern – PDF Download

Sizes XXS–6XL (Bust 31"–64")

The On Deck Popover is a relaxed, layer-friendly sewing pattern with charming, vintage-inspired details. Designed with simplicity and comfort in mind, this oversized outer layer is perfect for transitional weather and year-round wear.

With its flattering A-line silhouette and roomy fit, the On Deck Popover pairs beautifully with long-sleeve tees, lightweight sweaters, and your favorite high-waisted bottoms. A horizontal seam and buttoned side slits add both structure and ease of movement, while the large front patch pocket brings both function and cozy personality.

Choose between two stylish neckline options:

• View A – a fun square sailor collar
• View B – a spacious hood for extra comfort and warmth

Additional design details include:

• A two-button front placket for easy layering
• Sleeve cuffs with a simple slit (hits just above the wrist when rolled)
• Minimal seams for a clean, modern finish

Whether you're a confident beginner or seasoned sewist, the On Deck Popover is a joyful, approachable project. Like all Matchy Matchy patterns, it features simple shapes and thoughtful construction—perfect for finding your flow and finishing with pride.

Fabric Suggestions:

This pattern works best with medium-weight woven fabrics that hold their shape while offering softness and ease. We recommend:

• Matchy's Custom Printed Twill – for playful prints and just-right structure
• Bull Denim – for a sturdier, more utilitarian feel
• Workwear Twill – for a classic, hardwearing outer layer

Avoid overly lightweight or drapey fabrics, as they may not support the Popover’s silhouette.
