Pattern Description: This is for a variety of drapey shirts, including a sweatshirt with hood.
Pattern Sizing: I used the XXL size. I probably could have made the L size and been completely comfortable. It's pretty large. And my measurements were larger than the XXL measurements.
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it? Yes.
Were the instructions easy to follow? Fairly easy. I'm a pretty new beginner and it wasn't too bad.
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? I loved that it's easy and I now have a really comfy sweatshirt. The pattern envelope told me to buy a more (probably 1/2 a yard or more) fabric than I needed. It's also way way bigger than I would have preferred... but it's not bad since I was replacing a comfy sweatshirt and I'll be able to wear it around the house. I had chosen a pattern I could potentially wear to work but because of the bulk, I'll probably keep it casual.
Fabric Used: Fuzzy and warm fleece.
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: I followed the pattern exactly.
Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? I would recommend it... but encourage folks to make a smaller version than their measurements would otherwise indicate.
Conclusion: It was fine. It took me about 8 hours to make.
