This is the first jacket made for this collection. The outer shell of this jacket is made from pieces of three different garments, a back pocket from a skirt, and a few panels made from pieces of my printed fabrics. The inside all of the quilted jackets are made using three blankets.
When it came to choosing my materials I restricted myself to only using 100% cotton. I realized that choosing cotton as my main material might raise a concern regarding durability and the longevity of the garments especially when they are second hand, however, I decided to go ahead with this decision while trying to increase longevity through the designs of the garments such as lining the jackets and quilting the fabrics.
