    I know what I can use all those sweatshirts for, now. I have been looking for something, now by jove 'I think I got it".I have lots of batiks or is it 30's, naw the Hannah colection or ........I will make them all. Oh no, may ahve to get more sweatshirts, the ones I have are dark and some of the ideas are light fabric. Oh what a dilema.

    WOW! What a wonderful guide to creating a jacket! I have been wanting to do something like this, but had no idea how to start. I love the idea of using all my remnants. Could you talk a little bit about how you sewed it up and how you did the binding? I have never does this before and need the extra info. Thanks so much for taking the time to show us step-by-step how to make a jacket.

    I am a novice at quilting, but always "ooh" and "aah" whenever I've seen one of these completed...your directions are so clear, that I now just might be inspired to get out my 'stash' of sweatshirts that I've been saving for this project....thank-you...Naomi

    I'm also curious on how you finished up the seams so they don't ravel. The sweatshirt jackets I've made were never cut open at the side and arm seams. And I only added piecing to the front. I'm assuming since you cut the sleeves open you also pieced on them also?
