Tamarack Quilted Jacket Sew-Along Day 6: Quilting your Jacket
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 29 ก.ค. 2024
- Join us as we sew the the Tamarack Jacket! We originally released the Tamarack Jacket back in 2016 and it has now been drafted in our 14-30 size range. We've also released a collar, hood & patch pockets add-on to help you create the quilted jacket of your dreams.
During this series we'll cover all aspects involved in creating your own Tamarack Jacket. From fabric selection, help with batting, to quilting best practices and assembly, we're covering everything!
After the last 5 lessons of prep, today we're finally quilting our jackets! In this video we cover 3 different methods of basting, how to choose your quilting method, and what to think about about when deciding on a quilting pattern.
You can purchase the Tamarack Jacket pattern as well as the Collar, Hood & Patch Pockets Add-On on our website here: grainlinestudio.com/collectio...

I would be lost without these exceptional videos. Thank you!
I am at this point and my weekend is consumed with this great coat creation. Love my 🧥🎈❤️🌹🍷
Thank you.
Quilter here and quilting a coat is the best creation ever 🤩🤩🥳thank you for you DO
Aw thank you! Somehow just seeing this and I'm so glad you enjoyed the series
Oh wow that was so interesting and informative. I have just ordered this pattern from a supplier where I live, I have been so inspired by this sew along demonstration.
OH yay, I'm so glad! It's really a fun project to make, I hope you enjoy it!!
Great demo. Looks so great! Thank you!
You're welcome, glad you enjoyed it!
I was wondering if you use the standard stitch length of 2.5 when quilting the sandwich together?
I believe I used about a 3.2 length. You'll want a slightly longer length bc your thread is passing through more fabric. We recommend making a scrap sandwich and testing out different stitch lengths to see what you like the look of
Thank you so much for this sew-a-long. I am confused about one point. When you say to doing the basting stitches along the middle of the sleeve, is it down from the notch that's marked in the pattern, or do you fold the sleeve in half and mark the actual center of the sleeve cap and baste from there?
Oh it doesn't matter really. I typically do it down the grainline because it's an already marked straight line. Since I just use that line as a vertical guide point for quilting it can really go anywhere.
Here is another question: Do you have a way to leave the bottom for a hem, an opening on the side for side seam pocket? I have put shoulder seams together for corded piping around the neck and down each front piece. It looks good. Let me know if you think it is wrong to put markings on lining. Thank you.
There is another basting method. Spray basting.
Hi. Thank you so much for the video. One of the sewing centers here in SE VA will be starting this next week. I want to put all my markings on the lining and sew from that side. Is there any problem with this?
Hi! I’m really interested in making this piece. My machine is very old (circa 1970) and I unfortunately can’t find a walking foot for it. Is it impossible to make this on the machine without a walking foot? I haven’t quilted before.
I haven't tried it without a walking foot but quilting without one is not generally super successful. If it were me I'd probably hand quilt a simple pattern rather than machine quilt without a walking foot. I'd suggest making a test sandwich and trying it out on your machine to see how it goes.
Thanks for these videos--they're great. I'm working on my Tamarack while watching them Question--I have a Bernina 570QE and I thought that the dual feed foot would be fine for quilting. Would you recommend that I invest in a walking foot still? I appreciate your guidance!
I have the same machine and I do use my walking foot. I typically use the dual feed for piecing quilts, etc. Give it a try on a scrap of fabric to see what you think!
Do you have to make a bigger size in order to compensate for the quilting taking up
Nope, we've taken that into account when drafting
Could you show the lining side? I’m interested in how the quilting looks on the inside with the dart. It may influence the fabric choices. Thank you.
I'm not sure how to post a photo here, I'm sorry. If you could send us an email at help@grainlinestudio.com I can send you a photo of what it looks like. Unfortunately it doesn't appear TH-cam allows for embedded photos in comments.
Bonjour je rencontre un problème de matelassage sur la partie dos, le reste ça s'est bien passé j'ai pourtant bien suivi les instructions le droit fil, le faufilage, les epingles, le traçage des traits, le pied double transport ,mais lorsque j'arrive au bout d une ligne la première moitié est bien mais au bout ma doublure est plissée et n'arrive pas a couvrir le bout j'ai essayé de coudre dans un sens ou dans l autre c'est pareil j'ai tout décousu plusieurs fois, merci de me donner des conseils
Are you using a walking foot to quilt your jacket? You can also try reducing the presser foot pressure and see if that helps. And via Google Translate it sounds like you're quilting everything in the same direction but make sure if you're quilting from top to bottom, all your lines are also top to bottom. Hope this helps.
@@GrainlineStudioSewing thank you yes I use à walking foot and I finish my Tamarak all is good
Not quite sure I understand why you wouldn't quilt the fabric first before you even cut out the pattern? As a quilter whenever we made quilted jackets we were always taught to quilt first then cut out our pattern and then move on to the other steps. Not that there is anything wrong with the way you're teaching it to be done, as we all know there is more than one way to accomplish any task BTW I was also told by an instructor that the foot is called a "walking foot not a running foot" thought that was cute and I would share!
Only works if sizing takes into consideration size change after quilting. I agree with you though
I think they probably do this for a number of reasons.
1. You could probably quilt then cut if your using the pattern without the dart.
By using this method for the pattern with the dart, you reduce bulk and it will look neater on the inside.
2. Lots of people sewing this jacket are garment sewers (like me). I don’t think I nor my machine can handle loooong lines of stitching without fudging it some how 😝. I also don’t have the supplies to make my life easier that a quilter would have….
I think she does mention that you can quilt first then cut if you are experienced in doing it this way.
@@naturalisedhker7953 if Jen said anything about quilting first I totally missed it. I too am a garment sewer but I learned how to make jackets in a quilting/sewing class. Have been doing both for many years. Thanks for your input I appreciate it since I didn't even think about the dart.
Yep this is it!
Hey sorry, missed your comment with the holiday. You can absolutely quilt your fabric first, then cut. There are a few reasons we did it in the opposite order for the Tamarack.
Back when we first released the Tamarack in 2015 not many garment sewers were also quilting, or were even overly interested in a quilted jacket. In order to get them over to the dark side (wink) I had to have the pattern make sense to their garment sewing sensibilities. This meant starting with shapes they recognized and knew what to do with. For many garment sewers who haven't quilted this made the pattern seem more accessible as there was less quilting to deal with and the pieces were smaller. It makes sense that quilters would start in the opposite order as the quilting process is what's familiar to them!
On that line of thought, many garment sewers are somewhat obsessed by things matching across seams. Patterns, quilting lines, etc. Quilting the pattern in pieces allows for easy matching of quilting lines across the pattern pieces. Now of course as a quilter I'm sure you could make this happen starting with a large quilted piece, but for garment sewers we're used to seeing certain shapes so we found this made more sense to them.
Finally a lot of our customers like to do things like full or small bust adjustments. Quilting the pattern in pieces allows for more ways to handle the dart other than the bulky method of sewing a standard dart into a three layer quilt sandwich. This became especially important with our 14-30 size range and you can see in the dart video how we handled it would be impossible with a pre-quilted fabric.
So that's why we did it in this order! My mom is a very avid quilter and has made quilted jackets in the opposite order as you have. I love finding out how other people's experiences have shaped their sewing practices and as you said, one of the best things about sewing is how many ways there are to accomplish something!
Also every time I use my walking foot now I think of that quote and laugh, thanks for sharing!
