    Thank you! I just completed my version with 1.4 yards of a 58” fleece remnant. I didn’t line it, instead cut enough 2” strips to make a binding around the collar, fronts and back. I had just enough fabric left to make cuffs. Great idea!

    Forget the bed! I would wear that as a jacket and wear it outside the house! Adorable!

    I am making my mom one now. But I only had 40" wide and directional. Plus my paper was not 60" either. So I really had to keep track where I had to add 4" and 14" to make lining match my outter fabric. Yes. I had to tape paper together. But I still had to add those inches on the fabric. 😊
    Good direction, thanks for having this video. Because we couldn't find a bed jacket in my area. It's amazing how much lack of product is out there or not there when you are looking for something specific.
    That's amazing looking jacket. 😍

    Love it! My mother-in-law is in a nursing home with dementia. Spends a lot of time in bed. Sometimes she knows family sometimes she doesn’t. I thought this be the perfect gift for her, this is definitely from her era. But OMG Mink does not play well. I cut it perfectly, no stretching involved. Now that I want to lay it out to stitch it together none of the ends, corners, sides me up like the way I cut it. Going to give me more gray hairs real quick!!🤦🏻‍♀️😔😬

    I was saying to my husband the other day that I wished I had an old-fashioned bed jacket to wear while reading in bed on chilly nights. What a straightforward pattern - and excellent instructions. Watch this space!

    Oh, Laura! It is just DARLING! I think many of us would wear it also as a quick little cardigan, not just in bed. It's actually way too cute to keep only for bed :) LOVE also that it's reversible! So much fun! One of my favorite projects! Can't wait to share this one! xoxo Ellen

    Thank you so much for this! My son wanted a full length faux fur coat and I had no idea how to do it until I saw this! I added a flip up collar and used a long nap fur. These sell for hundreds of dollars on Etsy so I am grateful I was able to make it sew easily!

    Omg I'm out the door to go buy my yardage for my bed jackets! I have an auntie that suffered a stroke and she's doing much better but spends some time in bed. Her son took her to live with him, and she needs some TLC, and this is the perfect sewing project for her from me, and of course my mums gonna feel slighted if I don't make one for her! I love your channel. You should have your very own sewing television program! Thank you for the inspiration and making projects look EZ! rainey

    It's so cute. It's perfect to wear around the house too. And the lighter fur would work for the desert. Maybe sable fur in black and line it with scarlet sable. Love the idea

      It is fine if you have a fabric that looks like it has no nap. Like this lambswool. If you have a long fur you will see the difference
