Product code: Lightweight jacket purchases made from a vintage handembroidered tablecloth
Vintage handembroidered tablecloth transformed into a lightweight jacket. From my sewing room...here it is, a lightweight jacket I just made using a delightful hand embroidered tablecloth, I embellished it with patches from a vintage quilt. The detail of the tiny handembroidered flowers is amazing. Designed to be loose, roomy fit. Very well finished, Dolman sleeves, open front, side pockets, french seams. Unique beautiful piece! Measurements taking flat: pit to pit 39 1/2 length 31 1/2, collar to sleeve purchases 27. All my quilts; quilt tops; linens, have been washed and often mended before I turned them into a wearable art, but regardless they may show evidence of their history; that is the beauty of vintage textiles.
