Getting the left front of this vest done inspired me to finish up the right front. When I blocked this piece I did not let it soak for very long, so it didn't stretch out much. After I pinned it out I laid the left front on top to make sure they matched. I've already sewn the left front to the back, except for the neck band.
Before I blocked the right front I wanted to take this picture to show the effect that the blocking had on the piece. Besides growing a little, you can hopefully see that after blocking the fabric drapes better, and seeing as how this pattern is called "Draped Vest" I thought that better drape was important.
