Quilted Jacket done - Wahoo!
 
1 Attachment(s)
I bought the kit almost 2 years ago at the Quilt Expo and was determined to make it - thus not waste the $ invested. The pattern was kind of difficult for me to follow - making it a pain, but all in all I'm pleased with the results.
I used a single layer of flannel as 'batting' on the front & back. No flannel in the sleeves. Fully lined - and added an inside pocket. =) The back is the same color as the sleeves - both are quilted with a diamond grid about 3" apart - echos the design on the front.
IF I ever make this again - it will be a vest. =)

FYI - pattern info/designer here. http://www.jenniferamor.com/shop/Jac...et-x662246.htm
She offers it in several colors - I picked the blues/teals. The purple one is beautiful, too.

This is #2 project on my 2020 list of things i want to work on this year. WahoO! Feel like I'm on a roll!!
Enjoy!

Pretty jacket!

looks lovely

SewingSenior 01-25-2020 06:09 PM

OMG, that's beautiful. I want one, but alas I'm no good at sewing anything that has to fit, quilts are so much more forgiving.

Tish05 01-25-2020 06:18 PM

That's really pretty. Congratulations on your finish.

Jacket is very very pretty, Good for you for the finish!

Moira in N.E. England 01-26-2020 01:48 AM

Love it!

I’ve always wanted to make a quilted waistcoat - I’ve even got the pattern - but that’s as far as I’ve got.

Now all you have to do is make sure you wear it!

I'm the same way and always say I can only make flat things. But your jacket is so pretty, it tempts me to try again.

Nice, very pretty. Good job.

luvstoquilt 01-26-2020 07:24 AM

Wonderful jacket. I would make a vest next, too! I love wearing vests. It seems if my back and shoulders are warm I am warm all over.😁

MicheleC 01-26-2020 07:49 AM

Gorgeous jacket! Well done!

I am so glad to see it finished. You have done a beautiful job. It doesn't look like you struggled at all with the pattern. Just beautiful and well done.

Keitha 01-27-2020 06:07 AM

Beautifully done- be prepared for many looks and comments when wearing it.

osewme 01-27-2020 06:33 AM

Very pretty jacket. I have only made one jacket before & it was in seasonal Christmas colors. I wish I would have done like you & made it with fabrics that are "year round". Thanks for sharing it with us.

oksewglad 01-27-2020 06:50 AM

Sew pretty.

Like you, luvstoquilt, I like vests as well for the same reasons.
