Hand Embroidered Quilted Repurposed Vintage Black Linen Jacket
This warm, one of a kind, quilted jacket is repurposed and remade from a vintage black linen shirt.
The original garment was completely deconstructed and remade with new layers. It features a machine quilted outer layer with interlining that sandwiches a layer of fine, but warm, autumn weight cotton wadding. 2 large concealed pockets have been added to the side seams and the piece is fastened with buttons.
Along with a couple of hand stitched patch repairs, the piece is finished off with a hand quilted embroidered falling chain stitch which cascades and fades down and around the shoulders in a contrast off white embroidery thread.
The lining is cut from black cotton and has 2 large patch pockets. As always, the garment is stamped to show it is a repurposed item.

- Preloved Information
Items are made with preloved vintage and second garments and textiles. As such they may show signs of age from storage or wear related use including the likes of fold lines, discolouration, markings, repair work and stitch marks. I think these imperfections all add to the uniqueness and charm of the garments story and I hope you think so too!
Please refer to the photos and of course anything major will be highlighted in the description above.
