Missing Something...

I again had the privilege of doing a pattern test for Little Lizard King.  I love her patterns.   Lots of my items are created from her wonderful patterns.  She has such great instructions that are easy to follow & if I get stuck on something she is able to answer any questions just an email away.
So first off this pattern for the Reversible Vest is AWESOME!  Right away the instructions are just like her other patterns detailed and thorough.  The thing I am loving about some of Little Lizard Kings more recent patterns are that she is using actual patterns, not just measurements.  I was able to print, cut & tape the pattern.  I loved how fast this project came together.  As I didn't have on hand the buttons suggested in the pattern I ended up making this a non-reversible vest with just some regular buttons.
I love how it came out... and yes it just about matches my curtains.

Cody once trying it on was looking quiet dapper.  Yes. I would say so.  I let him wear my glasses for the picture.  Looked perfect ... but it was missing something... A pocket and perhaps a pocket watch...
I made this in the size 6 Years.  Though I am not sure if Cody is big for a six year old or is the pattern a bit small?  Or does this vest look right?  He could get it on no problem but I am thinking it may have been a bit short.
I absolutely LOVED making this pattern.  I cannot wait to make more and probably some matching bow ties to go with.  Christmas photos are going to rock this year!
