Vest - this number should be made out of leather/pigskin/calfskin but those require special machiens to sew. If you don't have access to the materials or tools just look for a heavy duty looking brown materials that can pass for something leathery or at least rugged. I did not use leather so this tut is based on fabric.

Materials

• 1 yard brown leather/durable fabric
• Brown thread (match the fabric as best you can)
• Butterick Pattern #6274. vest G - will be modified slightly
• A sewing machine (or a helluvalot of patience) - also a serger is a good thing if you have access to it
• Good sharp scissors
• Assorted sewing materials (pins, extra needles, seam ripper, etc.)

Using the pattern(these directions will also come with the pattern:

Open the enveloppe and look at the directions for the appropriate pieces. Then unfold the pattern pieces and cut out the pieces you need for pattern G.

Open up the fabric and fold it in half - lay out the pattern pieces in the most appropriate order on the fabric, make sure to check the directions for pieces that should be on the fold.

Pin the pattern pieces to the fabric and carefully cut out the fabric following the size guide that you need. Be sure to leave enough around the edges for seams. This will probably be marked on the pattern paper itself.

The vest should be shorter than the actual pattern so you can either cut the pieces shorter now or wait until you can pin them together, it's up to you.

Once the pieces are cut out pin them together into a "faux" vest, put it on and fold back the front bits so that they only just cover your boobs. You may need some help to do this. Trim any excess fabric but make sure to leave enough to hem inwards. If you are not using leather you want a clean, folded edge. If you didn't cut the vet shorter previously now would be a good time to mark and chop the length, again make sure to leave enough to fold and hem.

Details

There's 6 extra bits that need to be added on to the vest once the main bit is completed. There are 2 pockets in the front, one open pocket on the top right, 3 humps to hold code cylinders (or whatever they are) and 2 larger humps in the back to hold trinkets.

The open pocket is probably the easiest part to do. Cut out a rectangle of fabric, cut a semi circle into the top and then sew onto the vest. Done.

The humps are a bit trickier. The back ones need to be able to hold your trinkets so you should pin the fabric overtop of them, slide the trinket out and then sew the edges down. If you want the seams to be hidden under teh trinket you'll have to somehow hold the bits under.

The front humps work the same way but you can, in theory, use one piece of fabric, sew each end and then sew down dividers for each cylinder. A lot of this is trial an error if you are not an experienced sewer. Take your time and be patient :)

Pockets - If I were you I'd google "how to sew pockets" :) I used fabric to create an envelope looking shape and sewed that down to the vest as one piece.
