The neck seal finally got changed. It did NOT go well. There are so many lessons I wish I would have learned BEFORE I did this project.I did not do all the steps below and I am having regrets. Here is what I would suggest.
1. Measure your neck
2. Add at least 4" for me I wish I would have added 6" or 7" and shortened as appropriate I just don't know the best way to measure this
3. Fold over the neck piece in half
4. I made the neck piece about 5" tall (10" total material)
5. Add the stitch the sides (the 5" sides)
6. Add the velcro to the INSIDE of the collar close to the sides
7. Turn it inside out (Now it is right side out)
8. Stuff it with some batting
9. Add the stitching (I went about 0.75" between the stitches)
10. Attach to flight suit that is one of the areas I didn't do well.
Enjoy the video. Sorry I was so frustrated with this project I didn't take any pictures.

I also did some gauntlet work today. I am still working on the videos but here are some pictures of the most current state of the right gauntlet. The kids even enjoy it.
