Melly & Me Laura Quilted Jacket Plus Sizes Sewing Pattern

Sew a plus size jacket pattern from favorite fabrics, scraps, or a pre-made quilt, with Sizes XL – 6XL included.

Create a handmade layer with generous sizing and patchwork personality using the Melly & Me Laura Quilted Jacket Plus Sizes Sewing Pattern. This plus size jacket pattern expands the Laura Jacket design into Sizes XL – 6XL, with added instructions for using a pre-made quilt. The result is a striking ladies’ patchwork jacket pattern that lets you sew something warm, expressive, and wearable from favorite fabrics, coordinated quilt cottons, or a cherished quilt that deserves to be used and seen. Whether you love soft florals, bold modern prints, subtle scraps, or sentimental fabrics, this pattern gives those materials a new purpose as a jacket made to fit your style.

The design is especially useful for quilters and garment sewers who want a project that bridges the two crafts. You can make the jacket from your favorite fabric collection, pull from a scrap stash, or use a quilt that has been tucked away. The source description notes that the pattern includes instructions to whip up the jacket quickly with a beautiful pre-made quilt, which is a practical option when you want the patchwork and quilting texture without starting every layer from scratch. This makes the pattern a strong choice for giving new life to a quilt that is rarely used, has sentimental value, or simply feels too beautiful to stay folded in a closet.

Warmth and drape can be customized by choosing your preferred batting. The description suggests a soft, thin Bamboo batting for a mid-season jacket with drape, or wool for ultimate warmth on the coldest days. That means the finished jacket can be planned for the way you want to wear it: lighter for transitional weather, warmer for winter layering, or somewhere in between. Optional internal or external pockets add practical everyday function to the handmade patchwork look.

This printed sewing pattern contains fully illustrated step-by-step instructions and full-sized templates to create your own Laura Jacket. It is recommended for intermediate sewers, making it a rewarding project for makers who are comfortable working through detailed construction steps. The plus-size range helps make the design more inclusive while keeping the same creative spirit as the original Laura Jacket. It is a strong pick when you want apparel sewing that feels creative, comfortable, and practical.
