For supplies, Liz used several pins, a pair of scissors, black thread and her sewing machine.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">She first started by cutting out two pieces for the arms.<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">Next, she pinned these cut outs to the sleeves. Matching your thread to your fabric creates a neat, coordinated end result.<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">After that, she began to sew the quilted leather pieces onto the sleeves.<\/li>\n<li dir=\"ltr\">As for any residual fabric, she simply cut off any extra to keep things looking clean and fresh.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Although Liz used a sweatshirt with this easy tutorial, the possibilities are literally endless!
