The vest is The Dragon Vest by Puperita and is oh so cozy!
I added some orbit pockets using this tutorial from Paisley Roots.  I just made them a smidge bigger to work better with this pattern.
I also didn't have the correct size zipper, so this one was a little short. Still worked, though, and I didn't have to leave the house and buy a new one- and deal with people ::Shudder:::
The star of the vest really is the fabric though.  My best friend and I love how much it looks like a Monet.  The fabric is from Wanderlust Custom Fabric.  If you read this in time, there's a pre-order for this happening Black Friday through Cyber Monday. The price is gonna be super dope on a rope too.  BUY SOME. 
The shirt is THE BEST. It's the Flashback Skinny Tee by Made by Rae.  This is my go-to shirt for my skinny little guy.  It's a quick sew and really really cute.  
No joke, it could be used as just a striped shirt, as a Christmas shirt, or as a Where's Waldo costume.  I win.
This 5 year old has some MAJOR energy.  Seriously...
Anyway, there's the low down on my first bit of sewing for the new season.  I hope to do some more.  I may not...I get lazy.  But I'll try.  Haha!
Oh!  Back shots!  I almost forgot.  And I know how BADLY you want to see them.  So interesting...
Stay Warm, Y'all!
