Vest Pattern

The easiest way to find a ready-made pattern of a vest in a magazine. But there is another way - to take any of your jumper, outline its contours on a large sheet of paper (or on a newspaper) and fit it to the taken measurements.

Next, the cut out pattern should be applied to the wrong side of the fur or to the lining, in case you sew from individual pieces of fur. In this case, you first need to sew the lining of the future vest and already attach to it the fur pieces. Do not forget about the allowances for seams, as well as the direction of the pile. We cut out our future vest from fur.

Sew a waistcoat

We proceed directly to the sewing process. To do this, we sew all the details of the fur and liner on the sewing machine, then connect the back with the shoulder poles, turn the waistcoat on the front side and sew the neck with a secret seam.
