| Heidi Cooper | 12/30/05 | Thanks so much Debbie for answering my request so fast! I have a doudble sidded fleece with faux shearling on one side from Wazoodle and this pattern just waiting to go together. Is it terribly bulky? How do you think it would look longer and straighter in the front? Thanks again! |

| Debbie Lancaster | 12/30/05 | Heidi, the jacket is surprisingly un-bulky, but it's kind of oversized. You might be able to go down one size, depending on how stretchy your fleece is and how close you want to wear it. I guess you could make it longer, but that depends how tall you are. It would be overwhelming on me, since I'm only 5'2". It hits about mid-thigh now. I think if you wanted it longer, you'd have to make it an a-line, and add length above the curve, rather than at the bottom. Because it's not lined, it would tend to cling on your clothing (especially around your legs) instead of hanging free, so you need to consider that if you're thinking about lengthening it. |

| Mary Stiefer | 12/31/05 | This looks fabulous. I want it. I'm putting this on my list. Very nice. And thanks for all the good info on reading the instructions and trimming the seam allowances. |

| gailk | 1/8/06 | would this be a good jacket to serge all the seams ... I am looking for a jacket pattern that is finished with a serger. I have double sided suede/fleece type fabric I would like to use. |

| Debbie Lancaster | 1/9/06 | Galik, I don't think this would be suitable. Although you could serge all the inside seams, most of the hems are raw edges, and you'd have to use a sewing machine to do the topstitching. |

| Nancy | 7/30/06 | Your review is wonderful and the photo excellent. Although this is made as a one layer, reverse side showing shawl collar, is there any way to line it? If willing to see the lining? |
