Wool Blanket Coat Making making is an in person evening workshop (we will book a 2nd optional evening for those who require it) in which participants learn to make a capote, or wool blanket coat. This workshop can be completed with a sewing machine or through hand sewing.
Equipment
Every participant will require;
Sewing Machine or hand sewing needles
Ruler
Pins
Marker
Stitch ripper
Scissors
Thread (strong nylon thread is most secure)
A soft fabric measure tape
Materials
Materials can be supplied by the host organization or by us. The Materials required per person are.;
A twin to queen sized blanket (depending on the size of the person), or 1.5 meters of wool fabric
Binding (Twill tape, wool melton, or cotton broadcloth to make binding tape with)
This program teaches the process of pattern drafting. Meaning, each participant makes a coat using body measurements, not a paper pattern. Traditional coat making was not done with a pattern, but based on measurements. That is what we learn in addition to the sewing and assembling process of the jackets.
We do not make craft style, blanket stitch capotes. We create tailored coats in the traditional way. If a participant wishes to make the craft style blanket stitch coat, they may, however, that isn’t the intention of this program. We create high quality wool blanket coats.
Registration is 150 and is possible on our website at https://meetingmyancestors.com/product/wool-blanket-coat-making/
