Hi! Teri, thanks so much for your comment on step 5. I have a Jerrez(think that's how they spell it!)sweatshirt outlet store not far from my house. I had gone there a few weeks to get a sweatshirt but when I noticed they had added that V stitching, I never thought it could be removed.
I think this is the new style for their sweats, more masculine. They used to care every color you could imagine in the sweatshirts and for years we've been going there every winter to get a several of them. Now it seems they're offering a line of mens and one for women. And stop carrying all the beautiful colored sweatshirts. I don't like the womens' sweats because they are making them less baggy and not as long through the body. Great if you want a dressy looking sweatshirt!
Thanks so much for all your hard work and great tutorial. Can't wait to see the rest of the jacket. Chris
