This Field Jacket is made from a mid-weight quilt that is hand pieced and quilted in a classic Nine Patch pattern, with lots of great feedsack floral and gorgeous blue fabrics incorporated throughout. This style jacket features a slight drop shoulder and tapered sleeve, with a straight silhouette, complete with snap flap rounded front patch pockets and antique brass snaps. The inner facings, back of the neck, under-collar, and pockets feature a cobalt blue linen. The inside of the back of the jacket has been lined in gray cotton, due to some wear to the original quilt backing in that area.
As this is an antique textile, it is possible it shows it age in the form of wear and/or discolorations. Any areas such as these are not viewed as flaws, but rather giving it character and showing it's history. I have done my best to capture these areas in the photos, but is possible that not all are photographed. Please review all images as returns are not accepted - no exceptions.
For reference, I am 5'7" and my body measurements are: 34.5" bust, 27.5" waist, 37.5" hips.
