Hand Quilted Repurposed Vintage Boiler Suit Jacket
This warm, one of a kind, quilted jacket is repurposed and remade from a vintage deep blue boiler suit.
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 patch pockets, cut from the surplus leg fabric, have been added to the front. All buttons and buttonholes are original.
The piece is finished off with rows of a hand quilted cross stitch in an off white embroidery thread, a process which takes many hours to complete.
The lining is repurposed white 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.
