khunter said... I just bought that Jalie pattern one week ago!. I'm looking for navy blue to make without the hood. Haven't found right stuff yet. Summer goes by so fast I better get started on mine soon!! 6/1/09 10:49 AM
mittensonfabric said... Great hoodie. I just bought this pattern so will have to get busy. 6/1/09 10:49 AM
jaeng said... Great job on sewing hoodie! I won't touch this project until I have the coverstitch machine. That're alot of seams! 6/1/09 11:00 AM
homejewel said... 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. 6/1/09 11:07 AM
sewtime said... Nice hoodie, I have this pattern and am now excited about making it. Love yours! 6/1/09 12:30 PM

Leora said... That's hot, er, cool! Whatever!! I'm sure you'll need it eventually when you come back to Oregon for more fabric :) 6/1/09 1:46 PM
Diane E said... 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! 6/1/09 2:05 PM
Deepika said... GREAT construction hints! I am sure these will be helpful to all those making this sweatshirt. RED is your color. Love it! 6/1/09 2:21 PM
Christas said... Fantastic looking hoodie! The color is very pretty ...... looks great on you! 6/1/09 2:21 PM
MelissaB in WA said... 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. 6/1/09 2:48 PM

Ingiepops said... Mmmm... great looking hoodie. It's been freezing here in Adelaide lately (down under) so I'm quite happy for you to keep reviewing cold weather garments! lol Thanks for a great detailed review. The colour looks great on you! 6/1/09 8:09 PM

Nancywin said... 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. 6/2/09 10:10 AM
Barbara V said... Great hoodie and one that will no doubt get much use. Nice job with all the details. It looks great on you with perfect fit! 6/2/09 10:18 AM
CynthiaSue said... Looks like the perfect day to day jacket . You coudn't have picked a better color. Yes velour is very "Carmela" :) 6/2/09 3:09 PM

Kathi R said... 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. 6/2/09 9:57 PM
Hilary said... This is a great jacket ~ I love the color! And you gave some wonderful tips-wonder tape is great stuff :o) I think I need this pattern (sitting here freezing in the AC, lo!)! 6/2/09 10:45 PM
