    Lovely jacket! Do you use 2 1/2in binding, folded in half? Should it be cut on the bias as the sweatshirt is a knit?

    thank you again! I can't wait to try it!!!

    I just bought bias binding at the store. Not sure of the size, wasn't the wide stuff.
    I suppose you could make it yourself if you wanted

    The jacket I made in the tute is too big for me. It'd look horrid!

    okay, well crap. I guess I will have to make one and just see myself then won't I. Thank you for the tut by the way. I was pretty scared to try this out but I think that I can do it just off of your tut!

    I am going to make one too. Just washing my sweat shirt. tried to buy one but here in Spain temps have gone up to around 72F and rising. Thiswill be ideal in the winter for me because the houses are made of cement here and are really cold during our winter (no central heating) so thats my plan to be ready for next year.

    If I can make one, ANYONE can.

    I used a size medium for the one I made for me, I think. I'm actually going to give it to my oldest daughter
