Arlo Hoodie

• Upcycled quilt coat
• Vintage 1976 pinwheel pattern
• Kangaroo pocket
• Size Large

This vintage 1976 “Pinwheel” pattern quilt is signed and dated! It features Dutch print, florals, gingham, and solids, framed with Bicentennial blue and crisp white. It is hand-quilted, including filler motifs. When I acquired this quilt, it was unused and had never been washed. I have laundered it, but if you look closely, you can still see faint pencil marks under the quilted motifs. Curiously, despite not being used, there is one area that was mended. See close-up photo.

The Arlo Hoodie is a half-zip hoodie with a large kangaroo pocket. The pocket bag is hidden inside the jacket, so the quilt pattern is uninterrupted. Twin welts on the front of the jacket provide access to the pocket. Oversized, boxy fit with dropped shoulder and cuffable sleeves.

Unisex size Large, measuring 47″ at chest. It is 32″ long measured at center back. The shoulder is 19″, and the sleeve is 27″.
