Your stitching line will continue into the previous stitching line from the hood face edge.  Apply snaps. Because the curved bottom edge is difficult to hem, I just left it raw (softshell fleece, like most other fleeces, doesn’t ravel). If you prefer a more finished look, you can bind or face it with bias binding
