The Design: The Chore Coat is a classic boxy cut, patterned after a vintage chore coat.
The French Workwear coat has an added a chest pocket and a shortened the length to mimic a french work-shirt silhouette. The jacket design also includes easy brass snap button closures, a small pointed collar, two large fatigue pockets near the side of the coat and a relaxed tapered sleeve. This style is shown in the first set of photos with the model in the colorful patchwork quilt coat.
The Classic Chore Coat is longer in length, has two large patch pockets on the front of the coat and a wider collar. This style is shown in the second set of photos with the model in the denim patchwork quilt coat.
How it Works: If you have a family heirloom, second-hand or vintage quilt you'd like to transform into a one-of-a-kind quilt coat, you'll start by emailing us photos and the dimensions of your quilt to howdy@psychicoutlaw.com. Quilts must measure approximately 70x60 inches minimum for the pullover. We will discuss whether the quilt is a good fit for a garment based on the size and condition of the quilt. Once approved, we will email you further instructions on shipping your quilt to our studio. If you wish to have your piece tailored beyond our given design, (ex: sleeve length, jacket length, or other special requests) please contact us via email.
Made To Order: This jacket is crafted especially for you. Please choose your size and style thoughtfully. We do not offer returns on these one of a kind creations. We want each quilt to be respectfully invested in before we cut into it. The time and love poured into each jacket is time consuming and a work of art, as we revive these historic quilts into wearable clothing. Reach out to us if you have any questions - we are real and nice humans who love to see these quilts turn into something cherished once again.
Eco-Bonus: We would love to further upcycle the scrap pieces from your quilt into matching accessories like pet bandanas, baby jackets, totes & more! Click here to visit the Upcycle Shop.
Please allow 3-5 weeks for us to create your jacket (not including shipping or embroidery time) once your quilt is received.
