I completed one of my three January projects, the Jalie Mimosa top. I think I have posted enough about this top and I truly love it. The other two versions will get attention later.
My next project in the works, finally, is the Ellie and Mac Undercover Hoodie. I printed, taped and traced the bodice front and back for pin fitting. I made my usual FBA and chose the large size for this project. I also made swayback and forward shoulder adjustments.
I finally decided on what fabrics I will use. All are from my stash with two being ones left over from other projects. The third fabric is a ponte knit I purchased from Fabric Mart in 2017.
It is a border print in black and cream. The cream color matches the solid and textured cream fabrics being used. Yesterday I cut out the front and back bodice. The pocket piece for this pattern is really an overlay of one side of the front that will be the black/cream fabric.
This is my first Ellie and Mac pattern and my first time making a hoodie. Doesn't seem very difficult but there are lots of parts to this pattern. Once completed I will be making the Fulton Sweater Blazer.
Will post more later.

ReplyDeleteThanks Carolyn! I had planned to make a dress with it a long time ago. Today I just don't need many dresses. Nice fabric to cut and sew.
