How to Make an Easy Patchwork Jacket
#61
Okay, I'm just not gettin' it ... UGLYCook? Generous and Sweet are a couple of words that come to mind to replace "ugly." Thank-you, thank-you THANK-YOU for the wonderful directions. This thread was so informative. I have a couple of sweatshirts that I wasn't sure if I wanted to keep or not - but now I know what to try with them. Loved ALL the suggestions from everyone!!

Great idea for recycling our favorite old sweatshirts, the ones we hate to part with that we'd just gotten broke in good. The sky is the limit & this is a great way to use up stash fabrics. Thanks for sharing.

Mimistutz, when I made the cuff, I used a large piece of one of my fabrics (same one I used for the binding on the edges. Put right side of cuff fabric to right side of jacket and attach so that it looks like binding, then fold to inside. As I recall, I ran it about 4-5 inches up inside the sleeve. 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.

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