Making a Patchwork Bard Cloak

My husband had always wanted a patchwork cloak because of the quote from the Wheel of Time Series, The Eye of the World by Robert Jordan-- "Bran’s belly shook with his chuckle. “Black! His cloak is like every gleeman’s cloak I’ve ever seen. More patches than cloak, and more colors than you can think of.”" This quote is describing the character Thomdril "Thom" Merrilin, who was the Court Bard of Andor. Therefore my husband thinks of a Bards cloak as patchwork. (Please let me know if there is more evidence to support Bards wearing patchwork cloaks from literature or history. I am now very interested in the subject.) A Bard is my husbands go to Dungeons and Dragon (D&D) class, but currently he is a eternal Dungun Master (DM). But as the DM, he weaves a wonderful story every two weeks as our characters go on an incredible quest. He is a bard at heart, always coming up with fun songs, poems, and stories. He loves this cloak and it was so wonderful to get to see him wear it when he was named the Kingdom Bard of Meridies at an Society for Creative Anachronism event.
