Project Re-Style #1

So. I have joined a group called Project Re-Style.  Every Week for a year they want you to re-purpose or Re-Style  something old, that you no longer use, and make it new again.  This is my first Re-Style.  I have been wanting a sweater vest for about 3 years now,  and I  could never find one I liked.  I finally  said the heck with it.  But last night in bed , right before I fell asleep I thought,  " What the heck, I could make a vest super easy out of an old sweater."  I  Was so excited about how it turned out.  It looks exactly how I envisioned it.
I Have Posted this on The Shabby Nest for Frugal Friday.  Post your Frugal crafts HERE and join in on the Fun.

Tutorial

Start with an old Sweater.  I have had this for about 4 years.

Carefully cut the sleeves off.  If you cut after the two pieces meet, it looks neater.

I cut the ends of the sleeves off to make the flowers.

I folded each sleeve cap different to make two different flowers.

One was sewn on the fold.

the other I flipped and sewed it on the other side.

One makes a double flower, one a single flower

Sew to sweater, anywhere you like.

You could add as many flowers  as you like.  I like the look of two flowers.

I found two neutral buttons.

And sewed them in as the flowers center.

All Done and SOOOOOOOOO Easy.

Yeah!  A new sweater vest for FREE to add to my wardrobe.

If you have any questions, just ask away.

Happy Re- Styling!
