DawnMarie, I have seen patterns where the sweatshirt is lined, but don't recall if the sweatshirt pieces were used as the lining pattern or if a separate one was provided. When I do get around to making one for myself, I'm thinking I'll use the sweatshirt pieces as the lining pattern before I begin adding fabric to the shirt itself.
That's what I was told to do if jacket is to be lined. Didn't think about putting that in this tute only because I didn't line the jacket.
Just take the pieces, once apart, then trace around for pattern. Sew the lining fabric on first, THEN, do the front part. The lining will be held down by the "quilting". OR, you could just baste the lining in after all pieces are done before you sew it back together.
