Class Description:
Turn a cherished quilt into a one-of-a-kind jacket you'll wear for years to come. In this multi-week workshop, you'll transform a vintage or well-loved quilt into a cozy coat while learning garment construction techniques specific to working with quilted textiles. We'll discuss pattern selection, layout, cutting, construction, and finishing details, along with creative ways to work around worn areas, stains, or tears so older quilts can find new life.
Whether you're preserving a family heirloom or rescuing a thrifted treasure, you'll leave with a wearable piece that's both practical and deeply personal.

Materials Needed:
One pre-made quilt (twin size or larger recommended)
A quilt coat pattern, such as Tamarack Jacket by Grainline Studio or Patchwork Chore Coat by Patches and Poodles
Buttons or snaps if your chosen pattern requires them
Thread and bias binding will be available in class, though students are welcome to bring their own notions if preferred.

Included:
All equipment is provided. Students are welcome to bring their own sewing machine if preferred.
