neighborhood sew-along schedule

We’re hosting a Neighborhood Sweatshirt + Hoodie sew-along and hope you will join us. We will be kicking it off on Monday, February 18th, and it will run through the first week of March.

Learn more about this style by visiting Liesl’s post introducing the pattern. Need inspiration? Browse our Neighborhood Pinterest Gallery before you start!

For this sew-along, we’re going to slow things down quite a bit. We’ll start off with a week of preparation where Liesl will provide some additional information about gathering your materials, selecting your size, altering the pattern for your shape, etc. We want to make sure you sew the best sweatshirt or hoodie you’ve ever worn, and we’ll walk you through the process to ensure that happens!

The actual sewing will begin on Monday, February 25th. So you’ve got lots of time to purchase your pattern (available in paper or digital format) and fabric before we start.

Here are the details.

Preparation week:

• Monday February 18th: Gather Materials
