So my wife really likes hoodies and the traditional white mage garb gets her all hot. One day I was looking at one of her mostly white hoodies and thinking it would be fairly simple to add the red trim and make it look like a geektacular white mage hoody.

I'm fair at sewing but I'm not professional. I have access to a machine. White type of fabric would you suggest (I was thinking a type of felt). Any other tips?
