The Aunt Ethel

This is a vintage American chenille from the midcentury. To make this into a quilt, we quilted the chenille bedspread with a darling and cheerful strawberry fabric. Lady Lancaster’s first job was raising and picking strawberries, she is very much a strawberry fanatic. This piece is both a workhorse and a show horse meaning you don't have to be careful with this one. This jacket looks fantastic worn inside out. This is a great piece to cuddle up with by a fire, whether lakeside, camping, or countryside. Due the the chenille this piece is thicker and it fits a lot smaller than our standard Aunt Ethel pattern, even though it is the standard. This is a true novelty item. In our opinion, the jacket is lightweight, yet very chunky. It is super soft, and super comfortable to wear. It's like wearing a big teddy bear. Please note, there is a zig zag mend at the back of the neck, it is hard to see and blends into the quilt. If you have further questions, please direct message us and we are happy to send you a video.

 Please note that most of our jackets are made from antique quilts and the fabrics reflect this. Some fabrics can be older than 100 years and we believe that makes them perfectly imperfect. This is what makes them a one-of-a-kind piece of art. All of our garments are pre-washed in a special restoration quilt wash. We recommend spot cleaning if necessary.
