Vests of Many Colors with Artistic Artifacts

Vests are a great way to use a special fabric, so let’s get started! Fit for Art’s Rae and Carrie designed a vest using the Tabula Rasa Jacket pattern and Artistic Artifacts’ beautiful cotton Ikat imports from India. Judy and her team loved it, and now it’s your turn to make your own version during a 2-day workshop at Artistic Artifacts in Alexandria VA. As always, we will begin with fit on day one. Bring a TRJ Mockup and pattern pieces if you already have them, or have a sizing and stitch up a sample to assure your vest will be just your size. Then choose the fabric and the details from the Artistic Artifacts Vest, or try out details from Fit for Art’s vest and jacket collection. On day two, the pattern will be adjusted, interior and exterior supports chosen and vests stitched up for your wearing enjoyment. You will leave with a pattern that fits and can be used for dozens of different garment designs and you will be well on your way to a finished vest.
