Looks great and I am with red willow in that the bottom is further apart than it should be. But also I still think the edges need to be more finished. Aside from that it looks amazing.
So I've just finished my first version of the vest. I'll be ordering 100% wool for my next one. Hopefully this helps anyone out! Also, I would love some feedback!
Oh, and please ignore the bad stitch edge. My machine did not like the thick thread lol. I'm going to have to come up with a better option on version two!

fiercekittenz You did a fantastic job for a first go at it! I agree with everyone else about the front opening not being the same width top and bottom. It's strange that it's doing that. Did you make the shirt, too?
I found two patterns that could work well, however the princess seams in the back will have to be altered to be deeper and of course, the collar will have to be reworked. Thoughts?
