I always wanted to buy one of these vests, but according to my size, I didn’t. Then I found peacockchics creation and was surprised how good franzi went together with a plus size…So I looked for some left overs and did a run throuh. It came out close to the peacockchic creation since I found black and green-blue fabric. I cutted out the pattern in size 46, which was too small on the first fitting, so I added a few cm.
In the second fitting I had to remove exactly what I added before…Jep…that sucked…
I did a second franzi just as just as I finished the first one, this time in blue with orange-flowered lining.
I got a matching wrapskirt for this one, blue with an “apron” that can be buttoned on the skirt out of the liningfabric.
