The Sep/Oct 22 issue of McCall's Quilting has an article on quilted coats and directions for the coat pictured on the cover. All of them are interesting, especially as quilted apparel has evolved into more modern and wearable art.
One of the things on my quilting bucket list is to make a textile art coat. Living in the humid subtropics means I'd only wear it a couple days a year, but hey, that's why it's a bucket list, right?
I especially enjoyed learning about Rachel D.K. Clark's work (she's the African-American designer in the second pic on the right in the lovely blue coat.) Her website here has a lot more of her beautiful work.
