DIY Windbreaker with Dots Dots Dots

I can hardly believe it. I’ve finally used the laminated fabric I bought in 2014!!!!!. You can see it in the post:

You can not have enough fabric

I actually wanted to sew a raincoat from it. But I thought there wasn’t enough fabric 😦
Apparently I was wrong. The fabric would have been enough. Never mind. There was enough fabric for 2 windbreakers. So I made myself a windbreaker and gave the rest of the fabric to a friend from the course who had also made a windbreaker.
They are similar but not identical.

Here is my latest project ❤

Somehow all my logos have something to do with maritime 😀
That wouldn’t have fitted here. That’s why I designed a new logo and had it printed on the front pocket.

The laminated fabric is very similar to that of my raincoat. That’s why I knew it wouldn’t stretch and wouldn’t slip easily if I tried to pull it over my head.
That’s why I had the idea of sewing the opening on the side of the windbreaker to put it on and take it off. This means you only put one arm through the sleeve and the other arm is closed from the lower cuff to the cuff of the arm with a zipper.
It’s as quick as zipping up a regular jacket ❤

I also sewed a large pocket on the back. As big as the white patch.
This means I can completely do without a handbag or backpack.

I love the windbreaker, but sewing laminated fabric is so unpleasant. You can’t sew quickly, you can only sew at the slowest speed because the fabric is so badly transported by the machine.
