Hovea Quilted Jacket Workshop

This workshop is probably the most eagerly anticipated of them all! The classic quilted jacket, Hovea by Megan Nielsen, is the perfect jacket pattern to adapt to a patchwork jacket. We will be making one length and working through the pattern, breaking each step down in to simple steps. It is a fantastic drop shoulder design with buttons or a tie fastening which can be individualised with your own colours and fabric patterns. It is lined and finished beautifully with binding.
This project is perfect for intermediate quilters who want to crossover with garment making. Our wonderful tutor Lesley is not only a keen quilter but also a garment making tutor of many years so you will be in very safe hands!
By the end of the class, you’ll have a finished patchwork quilted jacket which you will no doubt wear over and over!

What do you need to bring?

  •  2.5m in total of quilting cotton to make the patchwork outer
  • 2.5m of quilting cotton to make the jacket lining
  • bias binding will be sorted out once the jacket is on its way!
  • 2.5m batting
  • A machine with a 1/4 in foot
  • walking foot is not required but great if you have one!

What is included?

  • Hovea printed pattern and instructions
  • 10% discount on fabric and batting for the workshop
