I love wearing sweats during winter. Bought some sweats from Walmart for $5 (Yes! $5 indeed), but thought how dull it is to simply wear plain sweatshirts. So, I started rummaging through my scraps, and here are some of what I came up with.

These were leftover strips

Beautiful! Nice work spicing up plain sweatshirts! I use pre-made embroidered things, usually animals, because I don't have an embroidery machine. Love the pocket idea!
