Mission accomplished! Mister's vest!

Aaaaah! The wait is over! The vest is finished!



I am actually very happy about it, and so is Mister. Apart from the welt pockets, it went really well. Since yesterday, I have

- pinned the linings to the outsides and sewn them together
- pressed it nicely
- shoulders together
- slipped the seam allowance in the lining so everything is pretty
- sewn around the belt buccle
- done the button holes
- sewn the buttons
- tadaaaa!






It so happens that today was the one year anniversary of Mister and Me living together. Isn't this a nice present?

I really think I am over welt pockets for a while... However, Mister pleaded that I start the second vest soon, I even have proof. I don't agree! First it is going to be my Frock by Friday, and then a pink 60s skirt, and then a coat... But look at his cute eyes... Almost worse than Puss in Boots!

  2. Impressionnant! sérieux chapeau! Je suis fan des photos également.
    Ce que j'aime aussi c'est repérer la ikea touch par ci par là. Exemple un centre rouge ou le super-génialisisme barbecue portable au pied du mannequin homme ;-)
    Mannequin qui se donne à fond pour les photos!

    félicitations.
    Ps: Tu me tiens une place pour tout tes défiler!

  4. That looks really good.
    I don't know enough about sewing to understanding the craftsmanship, but the end product is impressive.
