one of my favorite vending opportunities this past year was the 2009 Holiday Gifty Show at the Crucible in Oakland. it was my first show that i did alone (my man was sick) and it forced me to entertain myself more than usual. i ended up meeting all kinds of wonderful vendors and customers. everyone was so enthusiastic about the waffle back vests that i actually sold out of them and took three special orders for more! here is the one i made for Nieves on a trade for some of her wonderful bodycare items.

the proud new owner…

wow, i think i out did myself on this one. it boasts of all kinds of wonderful details: it has an overall burgundy theme with a brass buckle back on the out side where i used an actual tie end for an awesome look. i used a soft, burgundy twill as the outside back and the welt pockets (non functioning). i put brass snaps on the outside to match the recurring yellowish accents in the ties. the inside/lining is a gorgeous, shiny, gold glittery, animal print with burgundy, pink, and black tones. i used black snaps on the lining side. it can be worn both ways and i used interfacing and understitching to give the lining a professional, front side look. this vest is about a size 6. that equates to size small and will accommodate a bust up to 35″ and a waist up to 29″. click the photo to see more flickr pics of it! it will be for sale at this weekends Prepare for the Playa event.

this just in!
