Wonderful Wonderful Wonderful :)

I have that paisley in the first one and I'm making a Bow Tuck purse. They would look great together, don't you think? You did a really good job on all of them. Nice fabric choices.

These are beautiful.
May I add a comment. I am very fat around the middle,so I prefer my clothing have the details around the neck and shoulders to avoid attention around the middle. This also gives a person height. I am a clothes designer.

luce321 12-10-2011 03:28 PM

All three are so pretty. I love the combination of colors and patterns.

vwquilting 12-10-2011 03:31 PM

Sorry to be critical but if you bring the applique from the brown one around the neck you won't have a square look at the neck in the collar. You should pin your design on and put it on and see what you like best. Good job. Have fun.

Great job and great gifts.

vwquilting 12-10-2011 03:44 PM

Here I go again, Undo the neck line and put your fabric under the knit collar and re-sew it. That will give you a nice finished look. Also the applique should be mid way, between the neckline and tip of the shoulder. The way you have it it is off almost onto the arm. You have great ideas you just need some fine tuning. I hope this helps not hurtful. Hugs and Kudos.

Those are so petty. You did a good job on them.

harvsstuff 12-10-2011 04:02 PM

Nice job on all of them.

Tweety2911 12-10-2011 04:35 PM

They are so pretty.

Jingle 12-10-2011 05:37 PM

WOW, those are beautiful and look so warm.

Gladys 12-10-2011 07:47 PM

I like them and love the embroidery on the shoulder. I love warn jackets like that because the regular round neck sweatshirts are too tight around my neck so I always have to make a V. You're doing great!

hperttula123 12-10-2011 07:54 PM

sweatshirt quilting
 
Those look so wearable in comfort, and like something that can be completed without becoming a UFO. A great idea. Thanks for sharing.

Very attractive jackets are they from a pattern or your own invention.?
