I've been following the tutorial that tlrnhi has been putting together on making a quilted sweatshirt jacket. I went to Walmart this afternoon becuase I thought I'd better buy the sweatshirt before they are all gone & they had them on clearance for $2.50!! So, I got 4, enough to make one for my mom, my MIL, me and an extra!

Great sale. Can't wait to see what you finish on them. I love the tutorials on the board.

Where is this tutorial that you are following? I would like to
make a jacket out of a sweatshirt but I don't want the binding in a different color going around the neck and front but I don't know just how to finish it off. Thanks I would appreciate any
ideas etc. Christine

I buy Walmart's sweat shirts too - the men's sizes. Then wash them BEFORE you do the jacket, as they shrink.

Yup, stocked up on the sweatshirts when Walmart had the sale.
Church ladies craft group all want to learn and get good at it so out came the scraps. Speaking of scraps......you'd think a quilter with boxes of it would have enough.....went to the Watsonville fair yesterday. A whole building was dedicated to piles of scraps thrown on tables and it was the busiest place of the whole fair. You paid for the scraps by the pound. It was so liberating to find pieces you need. What fun!
