I made this jacket out of windpro fleece. While I love the windpro fleece, I would use a thinner fabric next time. I used a 3/8" SA for this jacket, but I think it would be better to use a 5/8" SA for the front panel seam so that the pocket zippers woudl be a bit easier to put in. Other than that, I think it is a great pattern that sews up nicely.
