Description
From the Envelope Back
This fashionable boot-length reversible quilted coat hangs closed in the front without fastenings. A quilted or trapunto border finishes the hem, neck and front opening and is echoed in cuffs and welts over handslits (which are common in ethnic outer garments instead of a pocket). Roomy tapered sleeves, gussets, and side panels give the garment an authentic shape. A lovely simple-sew version of the coat is made with prequilted fabric. The more advanced seamstress may quilt the body of the coat and the borders by hand or machine. Trapunto designs are given for all borders and for a decorative square patch at the side hem-line. This trapunto motif can be extended over the entire coat if desired. Separate Cutting Lines are given for Small (6-8), Medium (10-12), and Large (14-16) sizes, the length can be varied as you wish.
More About the Pattern
Folkwear 106 includes the full-size pattern pieces, and instructions for making the Turkish Coat. Enlarge the photo for a better look at the details. Let me know if you’d like to see the envelope back. This is a sized for women who wear Small (6-8), Medium (10-12), and Large (14-16). The envelope measures 11-3/8″ x 8-5/8″. The instructions and pattern pieces are printed on bond paper.
Condition
See photo. The envelope is in good condition for age (1982 copyright) and type of paper with some wear and short tears on the corners as would be expected. The pattern and instruction sheets are as new in original factory folds. No names or markings. From clean, smoke-free home.
Shipping
Generally sent the same day you pay. Unless you request otherwise, I will back this with one piece of box cardboard (to help prevent the Post Office from bending it), wrap it in plastic wrap (to help protect the item from moisture or torn packaging), then send inside a manila envelope when sent via First Class Mail with Delivery Confirmation. This is the cheapest postage option that includes both item protection and tracking. See the shipping page to give you an estimate on the cost of a First Class 4 package. I am delighted to combine postage and insurance costs if you purchase more than one item. The second item may travel for free or just a few cents more — so it’s worth taking a look at my other items before you complete your order.
