A great Beginner Pattern!
Practice those needlecraft skills!

     Ladies of the 1860’s used vests to show off their stitchery skills often spending hours on intricate detail and designs. Vests were worn over a simple skirt and body to complete the outfit or under open front jackets such as the Zouave. Vests were not only made of the same fabric as a skirt and jacket, but were often made in a complimentary color to match the trim.   This pattern offers a simple sleeveless jacket. It is joined in the front with loops and buttons or optional braid frogs.  This garment is not as form fitting as some vests are and thus easy to fit. The pattern requires just a yard of fabric so is reasonable for some of those expensive brocades, silks or velvets.
Let your imagination run wild!

This is a great pattern to go under TSB-105 Zouave Jacket and over either TSB-120 Tucked Body or TSB-121 Guimpe.  The Sleeveless Jacket can be combined with any of the skirt patterns; TSS-201 Double Opening skirt, TSS-202 Gauged Skirt or TSS-203 Gored Skirt  work well to make a comfortable outfit.
