    I finally got up the nerve to try making a jacket out of a sweatshirt. It was fun and feels good to wear a quilt. lol. The pictures make the sleeves look like they are different lengths but they really are the same. It is sort of hanging crooked so looks a little lop sided. But unless I am lopsided, which I may be, it is straight.
    Thanks for looking and letting me lurk. I haven't had much time to quilt lately so don't have much to show, but you all are inspiring me to make time to create.
    Thanks for looking.

    Love it! I see it worn backwards (the back is gorgeous) fitting snugly, with a long black skirt ala early 70's.
    You did a great job!

    I just love the way you took the basic idea and made it your own.
