    I just realized that I have a... quilted driving hat that has all kinds of tweeds and stuff on it. I don't know about making a hat just from scraps, but I don't see why a plain driving hat or something couldn't be pach worked over the outside in a quilt-like way. Just a thought, and good luck with all your projects everybody..
    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

    Use it on a kilt jacket!

    Put it on the cuffs of a Prince Charlie



    Or the pocket flaps of an argyle jacket!
