Unique Northwoods Art Coat Quilted Jacket from Glory Quilts

Description

My Northwoods Coats are individual and original works of folk art. Every piece of cloth has been carefully selected and stitched.

Wear it as a blazer or lightweight jacket. The trees, hearts, cabins, and starts are original patterns in yarn dyed plaids and stripes as well as solid homespuns and Lodge Look – style prints. It is interlined with cotton flannel and lined in chocolate brown, and it has thin shoulder pads to make it hang smoothly.

The handmade buttons are from naturally-shed deer antlers, found by my sons in the woods. The buttons are sliced from the antlers and drilled and then polished in a rock tumbler to smooth off the sharp edges.

The coat is made of cotton fabrics and entirely washable. When it needs cleaning, launder it on the gentle cycle and tumble it on low until most of the moisture is gone; hang it up until it's completely dry. Press if necessary.

Please note that the measurements below are finished garment measurements – not body measurements. The coat should have comfortable ease and fit over your other clothing.

Bust – 47”
Hips – 47”
Back across shoulders, from sleeve seam to sleeve seam – 18”
Back length – 28”
Sleeve length from top of sleeve – 23”
