Weirdly enough, I wear that darn thing at least once a week, because I use it as a windbreaker as well as a raincoat. Yes, it has flaws--no drawstring in the hood, ugly zipper stitching, no elastic at the wrists--but darn it if I just don't keep coming back to it!
What do you wear more often than anything else? Are you happy with the way it turned out? Or, are you like me, and wear it just because it fits a need? |

Here is the review, if you're interested.

I need to make some in more colors -- they go with everything if you make them in nice fabrics. ------ Paula

If I were a sewing machine, all I would have to do is lift up my foot and all my tension would be gone.

Date: 11/2/12 1:55 PM My polar fleece socks, made from Malden fleece, using a pattern from one of Polar Fleece Pizazz Books! Used a triple straight stitch and they never have torn nor worn out! Lots of opportunity to wear these up here in Northern Michigan! ------ MartiP |

And a bag that I carry pretty much everywhere for multiple uses. Kind of wishing it would fall apart now as I am ready for something new! ------ http://bgballroom.wordpress.com to follow the progress on my next ballgown. |
