A vest is easy to sew, with endless costume and cosplay possibilities!—not just for Halloween, but for playtime all year long. I’ll show you my favorite version, made from felt (with a FREE pattern included). Then you can add your own bells and whistles to make one for a cowboy/cowgirl, pirate, pilgrim, sheriff, or just about anything. Let’s get sewing.
• For this project I partnered with Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft Stores, which has all the felt you could want to make your vests in any color combination! To find a local store visit:
