From the book "Wearable Waves" by Karen EckmeierWhy use a sweatshirt?
1. It already fits
2. Only basic sewing skills are required
3. Easy lining - the smooth side of the sweatshirt becomes your lining
4. "Quilts" beautifully. The sweatshirt serves as both the batting and the bottom fabric layer.
Carolyn will lead us in a workshop to create a one-of-a-kind jacket, perfect for winters in Pensacola.
