I'm so excited to finally get to take a class with Rachel D. Clark in June with one of my guilds, South Bay Area Modern Quilt Guild! It's on Zoom of course, someday soon we'll be able to be meeting up in person I hope. The class is going to be about making one of her famous quilted jackets. Not that I'll be needing a jacket anytime soon, but maybe I'll get it done by the time it gets cold again.
I went ahead and bought one of her patterns as well as her booklet about the special techniques she teaches. I chose the classic A-line because that's usually pretty flattering.
Now to plan out what fabrics I'll be using....My first thought is something monochromatic and neutral. Like all dark greys, I think that'd be pretty and easy to wear. Especially since it's a long coat. But maybe I should go for color color color? Ack!

I am excited that you are finally making this. Isn't it crazy how the modern quiltmakers are now doing quilted clothing?
I actually find it a little bit hilarious. And RDC has been there the whoooole time just waiting for them to come around and give it a try.
