Oh that is so pretty. I would love to make one for myself but i am too chicken to try one yet.

Gorgeous!
Is it the same on the back or solid fabric or sweatshirt?

brushandthimble 06-07-2010 02:36 AM

Is it made over a sweatshirt?

I want to touch it. Are all those pieces appliqued individually? Is beautiful.

dkabasketlady 06-07-2010 07:10 AM

Can I be your DMIL? The fabrics are scrumptuous!! I'm sure the next one will be just as wonderful!

Evelynquilts 06-07-2010 07:51 AM

you did a beautiful job... :-D

UglyCook 06-07-2010 07:53 AM

Haha, looks hard, doesn't it? It's a sweatshirt cut open on the sides and down the front, ribbing on bottom and sleeves removed. I stuck random pieces of fabric on with spray adhesive and then zigzagged around them. I then serged the sides and sleeves back together, sewed the ribbing on the collar down and added the binding. Done!

ann clare 06-07-2010 08:08 AM

Great job. Beautiful.

topper1 06-07-2010 08:09 AM

Our guild had a one day workshop to make one of these. My colors were gorgeous, construction went fine, BUT in my opinion, these jackets only look good on someone under a size 12!! I looked wretched!! Looked like it was made by Omar the tent maker!! So, I turned it into a gift for an old friend!! She loves it!!
On the other hand, I love the one I made for my great granddaughter Sara!!

You know you see something and say,"I have to make that".
This is it. It goes to the top of the list for fall.
Thanks for telling us how you did it.

luv-e 06-07-2010 10:08 AM

Love your color selection too. Did you use a pack of charms???

paintedquilt 06-07-2010 10:21 AM

Gorgeous :thumbup:

UglyCook 06-07-2010 10:34 AM

I did not use a pack of charms. I bought a quarter yard of 5 different fabrics.

thanks for the info. You can pick my fabric out anytime. :thumbup:

quilter64779 06-08-2010 04:50 AM

Very nice job. I love the colors. I have made several jackets all differemt. Pieced a large piece of fabric and go from there. Be sure to post the next one, if there is a tutorial I would be interested in seeing it. Haven't made one like your yet.

Mom of eight 06-08-2010 06:16 AM

Beautiful. I am in craft fairs and the lady across from me made these. She sold 1 at $55.00 and they never came close to the one you made. Yours is just Beautiful
