I got the idea for a jacket at the International Quilt Show in Houston last November. I saw some very pretty jackets made out of old quilts and immediately thought of this quilt. My mil is always cold so I thought a jacket made out of the quilt her gm made her would be perfect.
Make her a jacket out of a quilt YOU make her. Make her a QUILT out of the quilt that her GM made her!
Like Fiber Artist said, if its coming apart already at the seams from just sitting around it will REALLY fall apart once it is turned into a jacket and used all the time plus washing it....would be a nightmare! And all your hard work would be down the drain!
