-

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?

Easy to make the hand openings and the hood.

Fabric used

Red poly coat fabric

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made or would recommend

Make several sizes bigger than you think you'll need or add an inch to each piece. Also I lined the hood.

Would you sew this pattern again?

Yes

Would you recommend this pattern to others?

Yes

Any additional comments

I used a yard more fabric than the pattern called for and it still wasn't big enough. Also it isn't lined so make sure you have enough fabric if you decide to line it.
