Pirate’s Vest

Pirate's Vest
This vest should have been an every-day vest, but turned out to be mostly an alternative vest for the 2014 outfit Airship Pirate, because it does not go well with most of my wardrobe.

But it is cozy and warm and I will definitely find many opportunities to wear it in everyday life :-)

Making of …

The sewing pattern for the vest is from F.I.M.I. (Winter 2007). The pattern fits so perfectly that I did not have to change it at all :-)
The fabric is the rest from the Airship Pirate. The green-brown washed-out colour gradient of the coarse cord fabric adds to the shabby look of the vest – so it is perfect for a bold pirate ;-)

I bought the wonderful buttons in a shop in Amsterdam and so I built a little memory into the vest with them :-)
