    In searching through the Eleanor Burns site, I found these fabrics. Looks like great prices that some of you might like.
    Thanks for the info!

I'm sure there are others who could tell you how to do this better than I can. I sort of made it up as I went along, since I didn't really know how to do it.
    Thank you, that makes sense. Off I go !

    This is a sweatshirt jacket I made about a year ago following a pattern. Your tutorial with pictures is much easier! Thanks

    Your jacket is beautiful. I love the curved bottom of the jacket. Doesn't look like it would be hard to do. Thanks!

    When I did my cuff, and I'll take pictures when I get to them on the one I'm working on now, I did it just like quilt binding.

    This looks like something even I can do! Then I can be like Joseph, with a coat of many colors. :D
