I actually wanted to make this sweatshirt last year but unfortunately my sewing machine broke down and it took ages for the store where I took it to have the time to fix it. That’s just the way it is when there’s only one sewing shop in a wide area that repairs sewing machines.
Luckily, I finally got around to making the sweatshirt.
It’s already summer now, but the next winter is sure to come 😀

I used the same pattern for the sweatshirt as for the windbreaker. I just made the pattern smaller.

DIY Windbreaker with Dots Dots Dots

Actually, I only wanted to embroider something on the front of the pocket, as with the windbreaker. But I found so many great embroidery designs for winter on Etsy that I couldn’t make up my mind and just used them all. 😀

The fabric is white fleece. I deliberately decided to use the wrong side of the fabric on the outside because I have had bad experiences with embroidering on fleece before.
But if you don’t know it, you can’t see it!

Here is the pocket with a flap. Isn’t the design cute? ❤

Here is one sleeve. I embroidered snowflakes from top to bottom on the other sleeve.

I like this design best of all. It’s quite large on the back. When you see the finished part, it could have been even bigger!

For the hood, I would have turned the design 180°. I draped the hood in such a way that you can see the embroidery in the photo. When it’s positioned normally, you can only see the upper, upside-down embroidery! When I have the hood up, it fits, but when do you put the hood on a sweater?

At least I hardly ever do. Unfortunately, I saw it too late and didn’t have enough fabric left.

Here is the sweatshirt from the front

And here the swearshirt from the back

Now it just has to get cold enough for me to wear the sweatshirt 😀
