Thank you for doing this review. I have just bought this pattern so I look forward to giving it a go now! What a fabulous idea to use the vest - very clever and beautiful!

Thank you for the tip about the pivot points . I have the pattern but have never made it up. The crewel embroidery makes it such a fabulous one of kind bag.

I love the transformation. Your bag looks so much more stylish than the vest. Well done.

I love your bag and want one just like it, but realize you have a "one of a kind" bag. You are so clever! Thanks for the review.

Hi Charity, wondering if you interfaced this or not. I have made this about 12 times now (for gifts), and am planning a version made from a wool sweater I felted. The wool is so dense that I thought it would probably be enough just to line it, and not interface. Please let me know what your experience was, thx Kate

Sorry I missed this review. You turned an ugly vest into a beautiful bag. I like this pattern.
