- 10 designs, four construction techniques, and two downloadable jacket patterns

Sewing Quilted Patchwork Jackets will take you through each step of the process to handcraft a quilted jacket!
Whether you want to use new fabrics or you are upcycling and repurposing an existing quilt, orphan blocks, or fabric scraps, you will learn to properly position blocks, add appliqué elements, layer, quilt, and construct piece-by-piece.
Authors Rae Cumbie and Carrie Emerson reveal the four different approaches they use: jackets with loose linings and two quilted layers; jackets with the lining quilted into a sandwich for three layers; reversible jackets with two decorative sides and batting in between; and jackets created from already made quilts.
For beginners to wearable quilting, the authors provide an overview of materials and tools needed, basic garment construction, fabric selection, piecing and placement, liners, hem length, and finishing details including collars, cuffs, and pockets. Two basic multi-size downloadable patterns are available — one for an adult and one for a child — with multiple length options. Intermediate and advanced quilters can modify the projects to suit their level of expertise, finding inspiration to be adventurous from the included gallery of quilted jacket designs.
You will learn to properly position blocks, add appliqué elements, layer, quilt, and construct piece-by-piece.

Our standard width fabric can be cut as a Fat Quarter, measuring 50cm x 1/2 the width of the bolt. Above is an example of how your fabric will be received, depending on the quantity ordered.
We also offer a sample service, where you can order 1 single fat quarter of any standard width fabric, to have at home and compare colours. When you are finished, you can send them back to us for a refund (feel free to contact us for more information on this service).
Our fabric can be cut as a Long Quarter, measuring a minimum of 25cm x width of bolt. We will supply the fabric as a continuous length (eg; if you bought 1.25m it will be sent as one piece of fabric).
