So, how do you "construct" your new jacket and what do you do with the bulky seams? Please also show the inside of your jacket.
Thanks.
Thanks.

I did one of those sweatshirt covered jackets and didn't remove the sleeves--just the underarm seam. I just crossed the seam with the strips from the jack bodice and back and then folded over the sleeve strip end and top stitched. Made the reconstruction pretty easy.

What a great tute! I just saw a jacket done similar to this last week. I have been making the sweatshirt jacket where you cut out different shapes of fabric and zigzag stitch them to the shirt. It is really taking a lot of time and thread. I think I'll stop and try this one. Thanks for taking the time to make this tute for us.
