    What is the name of the pattern of the quilt. My grandmother on my mom's side used to make that very pattern but I don't know what the name of it is and I'm talking about the quilt block name. Also she had a tulip quilt that she used to make that was an applique and she did the Sun bonnet Sue applique quilt. I want to find those patterns to keep them alive so they are not lost. I really am interested in the quilt block name that's used in this jacket though.

    Why not use the double fold bias binding that you use when you make a quilt? You fold the binding in half, stitch the raw edges of the binding to the raw edges of the quilt,, fold the binding over to the other of the quilt, and then stitch down the folded edge of the binding. NO raw edges. You don't have to worry about folding under the binding on the second side.

    Why not make this kind of pattern available in larger sizes? Do you guys think only skinney peoplewant to make somethin like this?

    The description states that the video comes with the pattern. But I'm unable to find a link for the pattern. Am I missing something?

    Is there somewhere to get this in print? I would love to make one but I honestly do not have the time to watch the video over and over as my time permits ( I own 2 businesses and work 55-70 hours a week) please let me know..... Thank you!

    I love wearable art. Beautiful jacket and the Hong Kong finish on the seams makes all the difference.
