High-End Fashion Vest from Recycled Plastic Bottles

Step 6 Creating the Back of the Vest

The back of the vest is made of 10 pieces

1. Use four of the main pieces- 7" Width by 5 " Length (upper part back)
2.Cut two pieces- 5" Width by 5" Length (lower middle back-waistline)
3.Cut two pieces-5" Length by 2 1/2" Widht,measured at the widest point ( those are the side armhole part,they should be a little curved)
4.Cut two pieces- 6 1/2" Length by 2.5"Widht (side panels)

Attach the four main pieces (1) for the back using links on each end.
Cut out a curve at the upper side for the neckline.
The lower piecess-would be the middle back or waistline,we want to jazz it up a little and accent the waistline. So we cut three pieces of trim and topsticthing at the waistling_{,also serve it's purpose to hold the pieces together.}
Then we attach the side armholes pieces to the main structure,using the links, and we topstitch more trim ( on the side) for proportion .
Next,attach (2) the square pieces to the main back structure,using a link for each end.

Next,using a link for each side ,attach the side pieces (4) to the main back.

Now we have the back pattern ,all put together:)

Then we take the front with the shoulder pieces already attached_{,and using a link for each end we attach the back to the front!}

The following should be achieved (as shown on the picture)

Next step is attaching the side of the vest.
I used three links for each side, place them 3 1/2" apart.

And Now we have the vest all finished,except the buttons:)
