Marcy says, 'Love this well thought out hoodie in a design interpretation that is a cut above the ubiquitious hoodie!' Our sewing friend/customer, Eve, used our Petroglyph Fleece, sold out for now, (but we will re- stock it for next Fall), and pattern Grasser #419.

Our sewing friend Lia did just the right thing, paring a stunning, bold abstract print, (named Lee Krassner, out of print), with a pattern in a simple yet strong design, Vogue 9162 by Kathryn Brynne.
