You can take any jacket pattern, the simpler the better, and making it a little bit bigger than you need to fit you. Cut inside fabric and batting. Layer these together, then sew your outside fabrics (crazy quilt style, 2 inch squares, whatever you like). Then cut out to fit the pattern pieces of batting/inside already cut out. Quilt as desired, baste seams together to adjust fit, trim size etc. You can either sew together final size with side seams etc on the inside or outside. Finish seams by covering with bias trim with edges turned under.

If I can find my jackets and my camera, I will try posting pictures later.
