| The Professor's Vest: I used a Simplicity 2870 pattern and modified it slightly in design, lined it, and added inside pockets. The pattern did not have directions to line nor did it have good directions for making a welted pocket... So if you look at some of the recent older postings (Sept 20-24), you will find my directions for making a welted pocket that should work better for you. |
 |
| I decided to do some decorative top stitching to match the lining and also the button holes. The top stiching was done with a thicker top stitching thread and if you try this on a project, be sure to use a top stitching needle. |
 |
| The buttons were taken off the Professor's old vest. |
 |
| The pockets where slip stitched to the inside. One pocket for his wallet and the other for his glasses and pens. |
