    This is a jacket I made using a sweatshirt. I made it for the retreat I am going to in Quitman Tx in April. They sent 6 packets of fabric left over from previous BOMs and you had to make something to bring to the retreat. It was a challenge! Some of the fabric was only 2inches square but I only had 3 fabrics I did not use, one was a 1 1/2 inch square and one was a baby blue.

    Do not like the lining but that was all I could find that did not clash with the colors.

    Thanks everyone.

    Esther, it is not hard to do at all. I guess taking the sweatshirt apart is probably the hardest part. I got the pattern at Nancy's Notions and this is my second one to make.

    Tia Sarah,
    Quitman is about 50 miles north of Tyler.

    You are going to be styling! Looks great! No challenge for you! And I like the lining. I was going to ask if it was reversible! You could Disco the night away!
