| jaeng | 6/1/09 | Great job on sewing hoodie! I won't touch this project until I have the coverstitch machine. That're alot of seams! |

| homejewel | 6/1/09 | What a great looking hoodie! I love it. And you're right about Mill End - it is my favorite store, too, but it's local (which could be catastrophic for the checking account). You should be thankful it's not local for you - I'm having a hard time dealing with temptation daily - lol. |

| Diane E | 6/1/09 | What a beautiful hoodie. My pattern is on its way -- I wonder how many of those patterns Melissa sold over the PR weekend. I love yours -- the color is spectacular. Thanks for all the construction help in your great review! |

| Deepika | 6/1/09 | GREAT construction hints! I am sure these will be helpful to all those making this sweatshirt. RED is your color. Love it! |

| MelissaB in WA | 6/1/09 | You're so fast and it looks fantastic on you! So glad you found that fabric because it says "Leslie". BTW to all who worry you need a coverstitch to make this sweatshirt, you don't. I only used my serger and sewing machine (and no double needles either). I just single-y topstitched all the seams. |

| Christina Sonja | 6/2/09 | That was fast - the fabric barely made it into your house! Looks great. |

| Nancywin | 6/2/09 | This turned out great, Leslie. I like your rationale of why you made this now! I'm getting anxious to cut into some of my new fabric purchases. |

| CynthiaSue | 6/2/09 | Looks like the perfect day to day jacket . You coudn't have picked a better color. Yes velour is very "Carmela" :) |

| Kathi Rank | 6/2/09 | Although velour is very Carmela, it could be one of life's guilty pleasures while working in your home office.....it feels much better than it looks. Nice red hoodie - thanks for the review. |
