Patches on Point Shorty Chore Coat with Mandarin Collar by Lottie Dal - Floral Trim
Made from a late 1800’s hand-pieced and hand-quilted patchwork quilt, this upcycled chore coat is replete with indigos, shirting fabrics, and calicos. It’s a medium/heavy weight jacket to keep the winter chill away.
Take a peak at that Baptist fan quilting! And no, those aren’t bugs you’re seeing in the batting. Those are cotton burrs, remnants of hand-carded batting customarily used before batting was mass manufactured.
It has been lovingly repurposed by the gifted Lottie Dal to bring comfort and style anew.
It boasts the imperfections, staining, and wear for a quilt of this era. The patterns, colors, stitches, and stains enfold treasured memories of days gone by.
With proper care, this heirloom piece will offer many more years of comfort and warmth. Hand wash, gently wring excess moisture, dry flat, and finish in dryer for ten minutes to restore softness.
