Pattern Description: Stadium poncho in three sizes and pillow

Pattern Sizing: childs, adult/teen medium and adult/teen large-which I made

Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
Yes very much so

Were the instructions easy to follow?
Yes! Even for a beginner like me I did not have any problems. However, the pattern recommends fleece as a fabric to use and then it tells you to iron your seems. Thankfully, I knew that this was not a good plan.

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
Not my favorite look but my husband loves the poncho. It was easy and I made it in an afternoon from cutting out the pattern to finished.

Fabric Used: Camoflauge fleece

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: None, I made it as directed

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? If I ever had need for another poncho, I would use this pattern. Easy to make and well described.

Conclusion: I have one happy husband!
