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!

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.
