As I was browsing around the mall I kept noticing cute jean vests, and immediately thought “ouu I want one!” But the price of one was $30 or more. I love fashion and all, but I am also\u00a0a cheap skate and I would never spend that much money for a jean vest, so I thought I could make my own.<\/p>\n
I have made two of these vests so far. This tutorial shows how to make a jean vest without a collar and bottom hem. You can also keep the collar and bottom hem if you like.<\/p>\n
Start by going to a thrift store (I usually go to Goodwill or Salvation Army) – I\u00a0found\u00a02 jean jackets for less than $10.00 total!<\/p>\n
Here is what you’ll need to make your own jean vest.<\/p>\n
Spread out the sleeves and start cutting on the outside of the seam at the armpit. Cut a slit then put the scissors inside to cut one layer of fabric instead of the whole sleeve. This makes it easier to follow the seam (rather than cutting the whole sleeve all at once).<\/p>\n
