As a woman who enjoys the creativity and fitting benefits of sewing her own clothing, fashioning jackets from sweatshirts will solve your need for some casual, unique jackets! Just wear one and you'll smile as the compliments roll in from admiring (non-sewing) friends who have no option but to buy their jackets at stores where anyone else can buy the same jacket. You'll never see your "twin" again when you create your very own jacket using my techniques, starting with a sweatshirt!
- Sweatshirts are "sew" comfortable, right?
- Finding a quality sweatshirt fabric and matching ribbing to buy, pre-shrinking, cutting out, stitching up the shoulder and side seams and setting in the sleeves isn't loads of fun...agreed?
Sew...when you start with one of my TOP QUALITY sweatshirts (at least 80% cotton), you will be saving yourself your precious time and money.
You're already found the very BEST location for techniques and supplies for this fun project of what some called 'altered clothing'!
WHY Shop Here?
- Creative ideas and techniques: My books are FULL of creative, original ideas and techniques, for exmaple, using the bottom band of the sweatshirt. The only place you'll find these techniques is in my books.
- Lots of examples: With photos of more than 125 different jackets and the instructions at your fingertips, you'll surprise even yourself with what you can create! You won't want to stop with just one jacket! I've now transformed well over 200 sweatshirts into jackets, 'sew'...believe me: I've fine-tuned this craft into a real art!
- Visual Learning: Both of my books -- Volume II: Creative Sweashirt jackets - Continuing the Journey, and The Ultimate Edition: Creative Sweatshirt Jackets (a combo of the first book on CD, Creative Sweatshirt jackets and Vol II) are on DVD. You'll easily learn the basic techniques by SEEING, (not just reading), as I show, talk, and stitch through them in 15 video clips. You will also have hundred of pages of instructions and diagrams (that you can easily print out), so you can tackle your project with confidence. I've even repeated the valuable video clips at the appropriate places within the 'book' so you can view them at the perfect time in your learning process!
- With pictures of 127 jackets and the instructions at your fingertips, even if you think you're not creative, you'll surprise even yourself with what you come up with! Ideas aren't new - they're just different combinations. I'll 'teach' you creativity along the way...I promise! Once you get going, you will never stop with just ONE jacket!
- A virtual teacher at your side: Think of me as the "teacher at your elbow" - your "elbow" is just the computer or your phone! I encourage yo to send me digital pictures during your creative process. I'll be happy to give you opinions and guidance on fit or design. Since my first book, Creative Sweatshirt Jackets - on CD, was an outgrowth of my online class with Pattern Review, I'm very comfortable with 'online' teaching!
By following my techniques and design principles, your friends will be absolutely amazed when you reveal that, yes, it really is a sweatshirt! Just like me - you'll soon be creating jackets for your friends and family!
