Wilt hoodie!
 
Remember a time long, long ago whenever I made a post about making hoodies with Wilt and Eduardo on them? Well, I finished the Wilt one! It's a red hoodie modeled after the official Bloo one at the Cartoon Network store. It's got Wilt's number 1 on the front with stitches on the left sleeve, and on the back, it's got a pretty big picture of Wilt and his name in "yearbook"-type lettering.

I tried to get the best picture of it that I could, but that is nearly impossible because 1) my digital camera is TERRIBLE and 2) my house has almost entirely spot lighting, so my pictures either turned out too dark or WAY too washed out. Here is the best one I could get of the back:

I am very proud of the whole thing, except for maybe the stitches on the arm - they didn't turn out QUITE like I wanted them to, but live and learn I guess. They don't look terrible or anything, just not what I wanted.

Here's a picture of the front (and me trying to make peace with the fangirls, even though it IS warm and snuggly, just like Wilt ;) Hehe I know... I'm mean!):

I've yet to make the Eduardo one because I've found it's almost impossible to find the right color hoodie. Still looking though... if anyone knows of a place, tell me and I'll get on it!

That's awesome. I'd totally love to have one of those!

That looks great!!! So...it is all painted or embroidered? I can't tell. (And I know what you mean about the lighting, we have the same problem in my apartment. If I can't take something outside to photograph it the pics always come out BAD.)

Oh, man that looks GREAT-I TOTALLY want one! The stitches on the left arm are a neat and original idea, by the way!

Hey, that looks fantastic (despite the lackluster photos). :)

It's all done in transfers. I realize now the stitchy bit would have probably turned out better if I had actually stiched it, but I managed to fix it so that it looks closer to what I wanted. I really like how it looks now!

Also, thank you all so much for the positive feedback! :D

Holy cow, that's amazing!

Wow! You made that by yourself? That's really good!

That's really impressive! I'd wear it any day. :D
