The last (for now) project for the leather accents series is a leather hoodie. The temperature has been cooler and hoodies and sweatshirts are one of my main outerwear pieces to grab and go. I added leather shoulder panels and a leather pocket which gave it a trendy look. I kept my outfit simple and styled it with straight leg jeans and chucks. Perfect for a chill and relaxing day.
Supplies:
leather fabric
hoodie
chalk
pins
fabric glue
seam gauge or ruler
sewing machine
With the hoodie on, mark with the chalk where you would like to place the leather.
Use the sewing gauge or ruler to get the exact measurements. Cut out pieces in desired shapes.
Apply fabric glue to the seams and fold/press down. Let dry for a couple of hours.
Apply fabric glue to the wrong side of the leather accents and press onto desired area. Let dry.
Optional: Topstitch the accents.
What is one of your grab and go outerwear piece for cooler days?
