Beautiful jacket...the frog closures are perfect for the fabric and colors...

Beautiful jacket. Anyone would be proud to wear this one.

Absolutely gorgeous!

Lovely expression of fall.

I will admit that I don't usually like quilt jackets....they just look to bulky to me. But yours is amazing!! I would definitely wear yours!! Beautiful fabric choices, great block pattern and wonderful jacket pattern. Did not know about classes for sewing with Craftsy so I will have to check it out. I absolutely love your jacket. I am sure you will get lots of compliments when you wear it.

For most of my jackets, I don't put any batting or flannel in them. I put the rows of blocks on a foundation fabric (stitch and flip). It makes one less layer so less bulk. In this jacket I used some silk that I had had for years for the foundation fabric (I know. It's kind of a sin to use silk that way, but I'd had it forever and I'm trying to use up stuff I have) which made it really soft. I'm with you, I don't like the bulky look.

Truly very lovely!

You made a gorgeous jacket. Enjoy it when the weather gets colder.

Lovely jacket. You did a terrific job.

Nicely done. I like it.

Love your jacket and fabrics.

Its actually not that heavy. I wear it to work year round. With the office a/c, it's just right without any flannel or batting.

Beautiful, in all aspects!!!! Many individuals that are clothes sewers have told me to buy patterns at least a size bigger than I bought approx. 15yrs ago. Did you do buy or make a size bigger?? I have pattern that are new, yrs. ago I made a size smaller than the pattern measurement.(very solid, not so now) Tinker

Beautiful..Love your fabrics!

Its BEAUTIFUL!

Your jacket is stunning! How clever of you to use the D9P pattern. I never would have thought of using it in that manner. Did you use a particular pattern for making it, i.e., Butterick, McCall's, Simplicity? I usually don't like the jackets I've seen that have been quilted, but that pattern has very straight, clean lines -- just what I like.

I don't buy a bigger size. But then I don't use batting which will make the garment much bulkier. I use the same size that I would use if I was making it out of a regular fabric. When you piece onto a base fabric with quilting cottons, you basically end up with a heavier weight fabric that would be comparable to a sturdy twill or light corduroy so no need to size up for it to fit.

Angelmama, this pattern is a very old Simplicity. I have a couple patterns with straight sides and a good shoulder line for me that I just reuse with adjustments like longer length, cuffs, pockets or whatever. One of the patterns I commonly use started life as a big shirt pattern. I liked the shoulder line as it fit me well and I liked how the sleeves fit so I just widened the sleeve, took the collar off and lowered the neckline and made a straight bottom. Instant jacket!

very nice job!!!

Great job-LOVE your jacket.

Beautiful jacket. Those frogs were the perfect touch.

I love your jacket and it is perfect for fall!

Beautiful jacket. I am so tempted to dust off my garment sewing skills and make one (I think I have an old jacket pattern too.)

Beautiful. BrendaK

Do it! It's a lot of fun especially if you have a simple jacket pattern that fits. Make sure you can put the sleeves in flat. It's possible to do a set in sleeve put in after the jacket body is sewn at shoulders and side seams but it's quite a bit harder.

Great job on the jacket !

Very nice! I love the pattern!

That is absolutely stunning. Thank you for sharing.

Good job..Looks great..

Love your jacket and your color choices.

That's a beautiful jacket......good color choice.

Wow!! This is stunning! You are very talented. What does the inside look like? The closures are perfect.

Thank you for sharing this jacket done with the d9p blocks. I love the idea of the quilted jackets but often don't like the design on them. Now I think I might get on one.

Holy cow!!!!!

LOVE your jacket!!!

Its beautiful!

I sewed the blocks directly to the lining fabric so I didn't have to use flannel in between. This one is actually lined with a heavy silk I had left over from a dress and jacket I made back in the day. It seemed kind of over the top for base fabric, but I figured I'd had it for 20 years and never used it and it was the perfect color. It worked great and since it's a nice suit weight silk, it has enough body to make the jacket look good but is soft and drapeable.

That's really beautiful. Great fabric choice.

WOW!!! That is one amazing job of sewing. Beautiful.

Perfectly lovely. Those frogs are just the ticket to make it look classy.
