Porch Coat in hand-tied Ohio Star quilt & olive wool trim
It’s no secret or surprise to understand that handmade quilts are heirlooms.
Painstakingly cut, pieced & stitched together over days, weeks & months- they can’t be replicated & are filled with more love, passion & life than most objects one could fill their home with.
We’ve taken on the task of repurposing these precious heirlooms into wearable & cozy art so that the delicate beauty of these one-of-a-kind quilts can continue to be treasured & highlighted.
Each piece is one-of-a-kind.

Details:
This particular Quilt Coat has been constructed from a vintage, hand-tied quilt in classic red & indigo cottons. Carefully stitched, the patterning & vintage fabrics are DREAMY!! The quilt itself was in beautiful vintage condition & required little to no mending- hooray! We’ve trimmed it with olive wool from a surplus Army blanket for a pop of contrast. The original lining was salvaged & its the best we’ve seen.
As with all vintage Quilt Coats, please expect to find signs of wear & miscellaneous flaws. It’s a part of the history & what set it apart from garments mass produced over seas. They’re marks of love & use & comfort.
