Sew A Quilted Overcoat
Wanna get cozy with this fresh take on the quilted coat? The Ara Quilted Overcoat is short-sleeved with double patch pockets and plenty of ease to fit over your favorite chunky sweaters in the winter or just a t-shirt in the spring.
Fiber artist, quilter, and sewist Natalie Ebaugh starts this project with you from the beginning, from choosing fabric and batting to assembling quilt sandwiches and quilting your pattern pieces, to constructing a coat with a bias binding.
The Ara Quilted Overcoat is a tailored short-sleeved coat featuring a bias binding, minimal pattern pieces, and a wide range of prints and quilting strategies to experiment with – and creating a full collection of coats for every season.
I find it to be a unique and stylish piece of outerwear that is perfect for those looking to add a touch of personality and creativity to their wardrobe. The coat features a tailored, short-sleeved design that is both comfortable and versatile, making it a great choice for any season.
One of the standout features of the Ara Quilted Overcoat is the minimal number of pattern pieces required to make it. This makes it an ideal project for quilters of all skill levels, as it can be completed relatively quickly and with minimal effort. Despite its simplicity, the coat still looks polished and sophisticated, thanks in part to the bias binding and other finishing details that add a professional touch.
Another great aspect of the Ara Quilted Overcoat is the wide range of prints and quilting strategies that can be used to create a unique and personalized look. Whether you prefer bold, graphic prints or more subtle, understated designs, there are endless options to explore when creating a full collection of coats for every season.
