Jesse's WIP
CaptainMorgan:
I'm going to make my own vest, the pattern tutorial linked from here is really good. I made some slight modifications to it where the tutorial over simplified a couple spots. I already made my pattern and cut the material. I pinned it and tried it on to make sure the pattern was good, time for sewing.
A female vest is a little different though, there are more decisions to make in how you're planning on shaping around your figure. For my wife I'm going to make a completely form fitting vest, but I know that isn't the most common direction.
Jesse Libarra:
I am officially necroing this thread :D
well, not much progress to speak of, but I do have some plans to acquire some of my needed paraphernalia (toilet brush holders for gauntlet base [see ConDar Ward's tutorial] and my scrubs [for flight suit], things like that).
Now, my sister is on the way to the hospital for what we think is her appendix. :-\ So, I'm thinking that the ensuing hospital bills will negatively affect the spare cash that can go toward my kit, so I'm looking at some more delay. (not that this is my sister's fault, it's just I remember how it was with my little brother. Hospitals and ambulances are expensive. :-\)
CaptainMorgan:
Just out of curiosity do you have a target event to be able to wear this by?

sorta, kinda. *shrug*
Maybe by the end of the year, maybe by the next Star Wars Celebration (in what, 2 years?). Right now there's not anything particular that I'm aiming for. That may change, though.
Jesse Libarra:
Yay! Update!
No pictures as of yet, but I got my toilet brush holders for my gauntlet bases and I got a pattern for making my own scrubs for my flight suit. ;D
I'll get pictures up as soon as I can.
