This is incredible because I bought a coat that I think is about a foot too long and figure if I hem it I can use that extra material to create the hood it's lacking. But since I didn't make the coat myself, I'm not sure how to choose an appropriate pattern for it. Maybe if I just chose a similar one

[@dressdeveloper]

@@regenschirm37 it should be not too difficult to lengthen or shorten the hood, so it matches the neckhole. 🙂

[@regenschirm37]

@@dressdeveloper Thank you! I clicked on your link, but I don't see the hood pattern you selected in the video. Was it moved somewhere else?

[@dressdeveloper]

@ no, it’s just part of the coat pattern kit.

I found a bridal veil I like, but I am trying to figure out how to create a hood for it; especially if I can use some of the material already there (sewing in one spot to create the hood rather than cut from it). Any ideas?

[@dressdeveloper]

Hm, tricky. Maybe with a gathering stitch to form the neck?
