    Welcome back, sewing pals! Today I am showing you how to make a puffer coat...completely from scratch. I made my first quilted puffer jacket about two years ago and was pretty frustrated that there weren’t more resources for making a jacket like this. Most of the posts and videos I found suggested using a pre-quilted blanket or sleeping bag. While that is a great idea, I wanted to have full control over the design and construction of my puffy coat, so I opted to quilt it myself (and of course, share the process!).

    Your coat is so cool and looked so gorgeous on you! I was also really glad to see it came out a bit too small!!! I know that sounds a bit mad!! but you watch things on RUclips and everything always works out perfectly then you try and make the same garment and it doesn't always turn out that way. It's great to see that although things don't always go to plan it doesn't matter, there is always a way round it!! I loved this video thank you!!!

    This project is wonderful, I just bought a puffer coat and was looking for some refashion ideas when I found this video. Now I want to make my own, maybe one day. Love the separate stand collar and hood, on my coat there is no seperate collar, just the hood that extends to the front and buttons there. I don’t particularly like the way the hood hangs at the back, a separate hood would hang better.

    Amazing work. I am inspired to do a similar coat but with one I already own that is now way too big for me. I want to start by shortening the coat and taking it in on the sides at least 1". I've had it sitting in my closet for two years thinking it's too nice to give away, so why not use it as a practice coat since I wasn't wearing it anyway. I'm a beginner so this may not go well, but if I "just" shorten it and take in the sides, that might be all I need. This way I don't have to make the entire coat, use the same sleeves, hood and collar.

    I live in Asia where available parkas are sized to be broader than longer. I inevitably fall into the problem of the torso being just right when the sleeves are too short or the other way around with the sleeves just right while the rest of me swims in cold air. This tutorial was a huge help as I had no idea how to size patterns. This isn't the exact pattern I'm looking for, but I'll find a nice cheap puffer that fits well and pack it right so it looks as clean, taught and quite frankly expensive as yours. I hate puffers with a very saggy shell. Yours came out better than most off the rack ones.

      Thanks! You know, I have probably been using it that way the whole time without even realizing it (i've tried to put it on the both ways and always have trouble with it! It's a finicky little foot! haha).

    Did you allow for the extra side inserts when you cut your lining?

    I've been saving my HelloFresh insulation and am going to make a puffer coat with it based on your tutorial! Can't seem to find any nice ripstop colours over here in the UK though :(

      Also where did you get your huge cutting mat?!

    Regarding your coat size, did you go up one coat size because of the bulk or did you stay with your normal coat size? I also noticed you added the feature under the arms and the side seams.

    Hi! Thanks for the video, I would like to ask, are there specific kinds of sewing machines to use for when sewing thick materials like you did or it’s the needles that matters most and most sewing machines can do the work with just the right strong needle? Thanks 💚

    • @PatternScout

      The sewing machine i use is a Pfaff IDT Select and it sews pretty much everything I try on it (highly recommend!). For a project like this, you might be able to do it with a basic machine (Singer or Brother, for ex), but it might be a bit of a struggle for some of the thicker seams. So it definitely helps to have a heavier duty machine. And needles make a big difference...I used heavier duty microtex needles for the puffer because they are extra sharp and work best on fabrics like nylon to prevent snags. The needles went through the nylon and batting without much resistance. Hope that helps! Thanks for watching!

      Whicg model of the Pfaff IDT do you own? I'm looking at their website right now and am interested in purchasing one in the near future. I currently own a Singer Patchwork 7285Q and a Janome 1050DC. I have doubts that my Singer can handle these thicker fabrics. Not sure about the Janome as I haven't gotten it out yet after buying it in 2020 😂

    Do you think you would use a walking foot to quilt the fabric?

    I just bought a parachute jacket and I wanna turn it into a puffer jacket because the material is so thin. Is it possible ? Any advices ?

    Thanks for posting this, great info. Did you ever consider waterproofing your seams? or rather have you worn it while it was snowing or raining and not found it an issue?

    • @PatternScout
      @PatternScout  3 года назад +2

      Hey Shelby! 👋 I did consider it but decided not to waterproof the seams since I knew this jacket wouldn't be worn for extended periods in harsh weather (also it just felt like a lot of work! 😅). The fabric is not waterproof, but it is super lightweight and dries really quickly. I have worn it a couple of times for walks while it was snowing (about an hour or so) and it kept me dry and warm. If it got drenched for a long period of time it might soak through eventually. But so far, it's held up well to the elements!

    Hello. I love the finishing of your coat. I’m currently making one for my son following your video, and I gotta said, it’s coming out really nice. Do you recommend a video I can watch to make the placket part? Ive searched on RUclips and all of them are showing shirt plackets, but nothing to what you’ve used. TIA!

    • @PatternScout
      @PatternScout  2 года назад

      Hey, thanks so much for watching! I can't recommend a specific video for that part, but it is essentially a strip of fabric that I folded in half with batting in the middle. Then I added several rows of topstitching to secure the batting and "quilt" the placket before adding it to the zipper construction. I hope that is helpful! I should have shown that step in more detail!

    really helpful video. also, how does the batting holdup in the colder temperatures?

    • @PatternScout
      @PatternScout  2 года назад +2

      Thanks for watching! The batting holds up great in colder temps. This coat is so warm in these Michigan winters and I wear it constantly! I think the flannel lining also helps a lot to retain body heat and feel extra cozy.

    This is amazing! I'd love to make a full length puffa like this! Are you going to sell this pattern please? I cannot find one anywhere! Please please do! and thank you for a great video.

      Thank you so much! I'm planning to release something similar to that fleece jacket I'm wearing in the beginning (which is what I used for the puffer), so it'll be super close and hackable! :) stay tuned. so glad you enjoyed the tutorial!

  • @margaretgoodall5043

    How do you know if a particular batting is going to be warm enough? It would be so disappointing to do all the work and for it then not to be warm.

    I'm new to lining jackets. Did you just sew the lining right sides together at the zipper, and then pull the jacket right side out and push the sleeve part of the lining into the sleeve and do an invisible stitch by hand to tack it down? I see how you did the bottom hem, but is that the same thing you did for the sleeves?

    • @PatternScout
      @PatternScout  2 года назад

      Yes that is exactly what I did 🙂 Thanks for watching!
