20 people have my new One-Piece Quilted Winter Hood Pattern in their cart.
What questions can I answer?
♤ How long does this winter hood take? It took me about 12 hours, in one day, to hand sew the entire hood from cutting to finishing. This was with light hand quilting that took 9-10 of those 12 hours.
☆ How big is this hood? I forgot to mention in my original posting & listing that I included 2 sizes for this hood: the original hood size and an enlarged size. The original fits my average to small head. The enlarged size will better fit an average to larger head. Of course, size up or down as needed.
♡ How much fabric is needed? This hood can be made with 2/3rds of yard of 60″ silk taffeta. It can also be made with a different silk inside and out, with a 24″×30″ piece for each. You will also need batting, pieced bias, and ribbon.
◇ Is piecing okay? Absolutely! The original hood was created using piecing. So was my pink example. (It was a triangle of silk taffeta.)
♤ What paper does the pattern print on? The pattern is laid out to print on standard 8.5″×11″ paper rather than one large sheet. (I assumed most people don’t have a large printer at home.) It prints on 8 pages that tape together. This is a hand drawn pattern rather than a machine drawn one.
♧ Is this the one you made in fleece? Yup. I made a modern fleece hood using this pattern and a $3 red plaid fleece blanket from my local Dollar General. Tip: Use the larger size template because of the thickness of fleece.
