Double Breasted Alb Sewing Pattern 

Traditional Church Garment Design

 

This Double-Breasted Alb Sewing Pattern is made for those who sew with care who understand that a garment worn in worship needs to be more than well-made. It needs to feel right. It needs to move well. And it needs to last.

With overlapping front panels, soft shoulder pleats, and a clean mandarin collar, the design offers a balanced mix of structure and simplicity. There are pockets tucked into the seams, a full cuff on the sleeve, and both inner ties and a cincture to keep everything in place. It’s thoughtfully built, inside and out.

The instructions are clear, and the pattern includes adjustment lines to help you get the fit just right.

If you’ve sewn for the church before, you’ll recognize the small touches that make a difference in details that help the garment hold its shape and wear beautifully over time.

This pattern follows a traditional style, giving you a way to make something that will be worn with care during special moments in worship.

If you're ready to get started, everything you need is here.

Pattern FAQ's

What is the sewing level for this project?

This is a project for advanced intermediate to professional level seamstresses. This project is NOT for beginners. 

What is the pattern printed on?

The pattern is printed on white paper.  For those who wish to use something a bit less stiff, you may prefer to trace the pattern onto a lighter-weight Pellon pattern interfacing paper.

Why is the pattern printed on white paper?

There are limited paper options available for small pattern companies to keep production minimums low and costs affordable for clients. The patterns are printed locally in small quantities as needed. The available paper that is large enough for use with our full-size patterns for use while still allowing for small print runs is white blueprint paper.

Can the wrinkles be pressed out of the pattern by ironing?

It is NOT recommended to use anything hot to press the pattern paper. The patterns are printed with toner ink and they will smudge and leave black marks on other surfaces if the pattern is ironed. Simple smooth the pattern out by hand prior to cutting. If you prefer, the pattern may also be traced off on Pellon Pattern interfacing to preserve the original.

Is the pattern available as a digital download file?

The patterns are NOT available as a digital download file. They are a physical product that requires shipping.

Are the patterns sold to clients the same patterns used by Ecclesiastical Sewing?

Yes. We use the very same patterns that are available online in our workrooms for creating beautiful vestments.

May I make a copy of the pattern in my plotter or save a digital copy of this pattern?

The pattern is copy righted and is offered as a courtesy for use in the church to the Glory of God. The pattern may NOT be copied or saved in any digital format, resold, modified, and sold as an original work, etc.

For private use only. Not intended for commercial use.

Dupioni silk

What I love about ecclesiastical sewing is the quality of their fabrics and the selection of liturgical fabrics that can be hard to find otherwise. I also Like the fact that if there is a question about anything I can email and communicate with a real person not a tangle of phone prompts and artificial voice systems. That’s so refreshing.
