Rather than the normal tutorial today, I decided to just post a few pictures. I'm so bad about getting something finished and then just quickly taking the pictures without me in the garment. So today we will revisit the vest I did a few weeks back, The Flipped Over Draped Vest.
You can see the original post here, http://rhondabuss.blogspot.com/2013/01/fabulous-free-pattern-friday_12.html
Now for a few pictures.
Because there is a drawstring under the bust, the front and back panel can be worn so that the sides are open. This is how I usually wear it.Or, you can move the gathering so that the sides are closed as below.
In the picture below, the sides are also closed. It makes a fun little vest to throw over a pair of leggings, a pair of jeans or even a pair of slacks. Hopefully the pictures give you a better idea of how it looks on the body.
And just one more quick picture. I had told you that I wanted to make the Perfect Travel Dress in a sweater knit. I rather like how it turned out. You can see the instructions on how to make this convertible dress here, http://rhondabuss.blogspot.com/2012/10/fabulous-free-pattern-friday_13.html .
That's it for my little dog and pony show today! Hope you've had a great day and that this is the start of a wonderful weekend.
