   Double cloth is reversible fabric, most often wool, that is like 2 pieces of fabric attached together with thread, back to back.  Sometimes the 2 fabrics are different colors.

   Oh, O.K. I bought some of that in fleece.  The red and black coat I made is a double fleece.

   There was an article in Threads a while back by Judith Neukam (not sure of spelling) on designer Ralph Rucci's technique of sewing double cloth. Try the Threads index for Ralph Rucci or "double cloth sewing technique". Z

   I saw that article and saw it online, but I would like to see an article that covers all aspects and deals with possible problems (like choosing/adapting a pattern, finishing edges, etc).  The jackets in the stores look great, and I would like my project to be successful too.  The fabric is fairly expensive, so a good result is important.
