Default Quilted corduroy jacket
Years ago when I was lucky enough to get a huge assortment of 21-wale corduroy remnants at pennies on the dollar, I made quilted bomber jackets for my daughters--one black, one navy and one dark green--using the Heart Warming Jacket pattern by Gail Abeloe. I have wanted one for myself ever since.

With corduroy, you get an interesting effect when you turn the nap in opposite directions. This jacket is made from four slightly different navy remnants. It is three layers--corduroy, flannel and quilting cotton--with poly lining added in the sleeves to make it easy to get on and off.

Making it was a very good reminder of why I don't want to sew clothing anymore. I am SO glad it's finished!
