First Costuming Attempt

I have finished the

Pirate Vest Pirate Vest

Made for A, to wear to the Privateer Feast 2006. Using Simplicity pattern #4923 in the XL with fabric and notions from G-Street.





Sewing for Dummies was an invaluable help, as were [livejournal.com profile] twistedchick and [livejournal.com profile] tricksterquinn, for lots of online and real-life handholding.

I still have to add a drawstring to a pair of pants, and try to edge 5 sashes -- they might end up raw, unhemmed fabric -- but everything should be okay for the Privateer Feast tomorrow.

The vest looks lovely!

But don't worry - it's not a costume contest!
