SUPPLIES :

Step 1: Cut the fabric

Fold your fabric faux fur in half, then cut:

  • The back : Once, also in the fold.

Repeat exactly the same operation with the loop wool leopard fabric. Make sure all the parts are well aligned before cutting for a specific result.

 


 

Step 2: assemble the shoulders

Place counter place shoulders of the front and back. Pin carefully to prevent the fabric from slipping. Then sew a Straight point 1 cm from the edge.

Make this step both for faux fur and for leopard loop wool. Then open the seams with an iron for a clearer rendering.

 


 

Step 3: Assemble the two fabrics

Once the shoulders are assembled, open your vest flat, with all the well -arranged parts.

Overlap counter place Faux fur and leopard tissue. Benten carefully:

  • The armholes

  • The front of the vest

Attention : Leave a 5 cm opening At the bottom of the vest on the front to be able to return it later.

Sew At the right point 1 cm from the edge Following the pinned contours.

 


 

Step 4: Assemble the underside of the armholes

Once the armholes and the front of the waist was sewn, gently turn the work on the place. Make sure that all seams are well positioned.

 


 

Step 5: Sew the bottom of the vest

Make the middle of Two armholes By superimposing them carefully counter place.

Pin the bottom of the vest, making sure to align the two fabrics perfectly. Repeat this step on each side, then sew At the right point 1 cm from the edge.

 


 

Step 6: Close the opening

Return the vest again on the back, so that it is counter place.

Pin the small opening left at the bottom of the vest. Sew At the right point 1 cm from the edge, taking care to leave a small opening to return the vest one last time.

Once returned to the place, close this opening with a Invisible hand sewing Or a small discreet machine with machine.
