Thanks for all the great comments. 
I didn't use a pattern for this, I just kind of pieced it together as I went.

I really liked making it, I think I'll be making a few more hoodies!

Hi
This is my first completed project post on Craftster and my first time sewing a hoodie.  It's not really Panda inspired in that it looks like a panda or anything, I was just diggin' on some cute Panda pictures over on deviantArt the other day and thought how much they rocked the black and white.  I just so happened to have a couple of choice hunks of stretch knit and a nifty print in my stash and thought it would be nice to have a lighter weight hoodie for the warmer weather coming up (but I'm in Portland, it can rain at any moment, so a hoodie is a must for me).  I whipped this up a little yesterday and a little today.

It is short sleeved, with the long black sleeves removable depending on the weather.

And a little bonus, I embroidered this little 2inch Panda patch while my little one played on the playground today.  I hid it in the center back, right below the hood, so you only see it when the hood is up:


How did I do?  This is my first time, so be gentle.

and thanks for looking!

Oooh, I just love it!  Those sleeves are great!

I love the contrast of the colors.  The brown waist is my favorite part.  I'll bet it's super flattering.  the skirt is just lovely.

Aw, that's just lovely!

What a great apron!  I think aprons are under-appreciated by most people.  I was helping some friends clean up the house they were moving out of and I got some odd looks when I put on my little apron. ah well, I guess I should have had one with big fabulous ruffles like this one!   

Super stretchy fabric like that scares me!  I don't think I could be brave enough to try making a swimsuit, but seeing this is really great! Kudos to you!

Wow, you have got some serious talent for this.  I really like the style and it looks really great on you!

That Ice cream fabric is tooo great!  My favorite is the second one; so cute!

Oooh, knits scare me, too.  You did a great job, though!
