D9P Jacket
 

This jacket was inspired by the Quilt Board! I kept seeing all the beautiful Disappearing 9 Patch quilts posted here and decided that D9P would be a good pattern to use for a jacket. After consulting my stash (in other words, opening boxes and tossing fabrics on my sewing room table), I chose these red and gold Asian inspired fabrics. Since I chose Asian fabrics, I decided that I wanted a jacket pattern with a mandarin collar.

Enjoy!

Beautiful. Love the pattern and the layout of your blocks.

You've made such a terrific jacket!

I was having some trouble with Photoshop, but this is a close up of the frog closures I used. I bought them from Etsy and decided since they were pretty cheap, I’d take a chance on them being the right collar. The chance paid off and I’m really happy with the result.

Just beautiful. Love the fall colors - I'm sure you will enjoy wearing this.

Beautiful jacket, reminds me of the Indigo Moon jackets which can be very pricey.

What thread did you use for the quilting? It looks like it might be metallic or silk? Very nice work!!

Very pretty! Nice colors and arrangement of the fabrics.

That is a beautiful Jacket, and it won't be long it will really feel nice and cozy too.

I used one of the Sulky variegated rayons. I can't remember which one now, but it wasn't a metallic.

I learned to sew garments WAY before I ever learned to quilt so most of my piecing is geared towards garments. There are some craftsy classes on garment sewing. My friend who quilts but hasn't sewn many clothes said they were really good. She's been able to use those and make clothes for herself.

Very distinctive! Great work.

Stunning jacket- great worksmanship. Send it my way when you're done with it!! :)
