CRSo “charming” and so easy!
I made this jacket a lot like my other quilted jackets…with a sweatshirt!
For this jacket I used a large sweatshirt and 3 charm packs. I got my charm pack from @missouriquiltco. It’s the Tilda creating memories summer charm pack.
Start by sewing together 12 rows of 6 squares each and 10 rows of 5 squares each.
The 6 sq rows are for the front and back.
The 5 sq rows are for the sleeves.
Cut apart the sweatshirt as shown in my part 1 reel of making a quilted jacket.
Take a front piece and one 6 sq row and attach to the center edge with an 1/8” seam. Then take another 6 sq row and place on top of the sewn row, right sides together. Sew on other edge 1/4” seam allowance. Press open and repeat with another strip. Sew an 1/8” seam along all the edges to secure strips. Trim off excess strips.
Repeat with other front piece.
For the back, take a 6 sq row and place down the center. Place another row on top right sides together. Sew down one side, 1/4” seam allowance. Press open strips. Repeat on other side of center strip. Then just keep working your way out to the edges. Once the back is covered sew an 1/8” seam along the edges to secure the strips. Trim off excess of strips.
For the sleeves Construct the same as you did the back by starting in the center and work your way to the edges. Secure with 1/8” seam and trim off excess strips. I do like to go ahead and attach my lace ribbon to the edge of my sleeves before sewing it together, it just makes it easier.
Sew the sweatshirt back together as shown in part 3 of my quilted jacket tutorials.
For the lace ribbon on the edge, I did hem adhesive by folding my edges over 1/4” and ironing then pinning the lace to the inside and sewing along the edge to attach.
You can find all three of my tutorials pinned to the top of my feed on IG or find my full YouTube tutorial under my channel CreatEd Studio.
Can’t wait to see what you all will make!!!
