I just bought some chenile at 11.99 a yard with a 50% off coupon from Hancocks. Now I want to find a good pattern to make a jacket out of it. If anyone has made one of these and has a good pattern, I am open to suggestions. This is going to be one of my projects over the summer.
Thanks,
Jolene

Thank-you for the nice comments. I do have a lot to learn though yet. I have to ask tons of questions yet. I am feeling better about many aspects of what I do sewing now but I am still beginning in many aspects!
