marec said... That is beautiful on you Martha! I love the red/black combo and the checks are very sporty. This is a SW pattern I may try when I am over my trauma from the last 2 attempts :-) 11/10/10 1:29 PM
Annette1 said... GREAT review, and your designer vest is such a welcome splash of color as we make our way into the fall/winter season. I particularly like your black/white checked lining and the black/white button (and loop closure). SO pretty! 11/10/10 4:46 PM
Barbara V said... Your vest is a wonderful creation using the Verona Jacket pattern. So nice looking with the addition of the black/white element. Very clever. 11/10/10 4:58 PM
DorothyK said... I like it. I think it's great as a vest. I like your choice of fabrics. Looking forward to seeing the coat. 11/10/10 5:29 PM

pterion said... Beautifully done, inside and out. Red and black are one of my favorite color combos and this vest is very striking. 11/10/10 11:06 PM

Fran S said... Martha, this is lovely. I liked this pattern as soon as it came out but this is the first time I've seen it made up. Thank you! I absolutely love your contrast facing. You should wear it at least part open just to show it off! 11/11/10 8:42 AM
grey ann said... Martha, I love your thorough reviews, even tho' we are NOT the same body type. Your tips and techniques are very helpful. Great adaptation of this pattern to make a vest. Love the b&w trim details. It's very becoming on you. 11/11/10 9:10 AM
Karendee said... Beautiful vest and extremely well executed. I love the inside and button/closing detail as much as the public side of this vest. Beautifully made. 11/11/10 12:48 PM
blue mooney said... Love this! Coordinating the facing and button is a wonderful touch. Classy looking vest. 11/12/10 8:16 AM
Very nice.
