Links for Supplies I’m Using
- Inspiration for this project from KNL Reworks Co on Facebook
- Hoodie: Mine was purchased at Hobby Lobby. You can use an old hoodie you already have. Make sure you like the fit of the hoodie you use.
- Quilting Cuddle: New low pile Minky from Shannon Fabrics. It can be purchased at local quilt shops and online. In my sample I used Whispering Blooms Mystical Quilting Cuddle in Purple (floral print). Solid Quilting Cuddle Really Purple and Juniper. For the hoodie I will be making in the livestreams, I’m using Whispering Blooms Charmed Quilting Cuddle Purple and solids Really Purple and Juniper.
- In the Hoop Sweatshirt Pocket File
- Serger: Brother AirFlow 3000 Air Threader. I’m using a 4 thread overlock stitch. You could also use a sewing machine.
- Kai Scissors
- Seam Ripper
- Paper or something to trace your hoodie pattern
- Basic sewing skills required
Schedule of Lives
- Lives will be at 11:00am central on the following dates.
- Watch on Embroidery Garden’s FB page Or YouTube Channel
- I won’t be posting reminders. My recommendation is to subscribe to my YouTube channel as Facebook can be unreliable at times when it comes to live-streaming.
Note that I will not be stitching everything during the lives. I will give you enough instruction that you can complete the project.
