Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

As a bridge between apparently incompatible items of clothing, a colorfully patterned vest can enable you to wear that blouse that never seemed to go with anything, or it can hide that waistband you hate. The pieced and applique variations of this simple but nicely presented book range from the country-quilt look to sophisticated, along with good specifics on color selection, piecing techniques, and embellishments. The 16-page, full-color gallery of vests contains clear photos of 31 vests, 14 of which are accompanied by specific directions. There are also 13 pages of reduced-size, pieced-block designs and, as an extra bonus, an actual tear-out, full-size vest pattern with cutting lines ranging for sizes petite through extra-large.


Product Description

Combine your love of quilting with your sense of style! These quick-and-easy vests are fun to make and flattering to wear. An innovative reversible feature means you can make one side of your vest casual and the other side elegant and dressy.

• Choose from four different vest styles and 14 patterns that use simple rotary cutting and paper piecing

• Add a distinctive focal point to a vest with 37 different paper-pieced block designs

Includes a full-color gallery of 41 vests for inspiration; sizes range from petite to extra large

5.0 out of 5 stars Reccomended by the accidental quilter, August 12, 2000
By Mary Z. Cox (Tallahassee, FL USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I bought this book to use in a class on paper piecing. It's a good intro to paper piecing and the vests are great. There are three major pattern styles--but endless possibilities. I made my Mom's birthday vest from the pattern in this book, and I made a sewing vest for myself out of quilt scraps. These are art vests and if you don't wear vests--they look great hung on the wall too. Carol Doak is clear and accurrate and she doesn't leave out any of the steps. Vests, paper piecing, a creative jumpstart--are all here--what more could you want? Mary Z. Cox the accidental quilter

5.0 out of 5 stars Attractive Stylish wearable Art!!, June 13, 1998
By A Customer
Another of my cherished Foundation piecing books - my second Carol Doak one. What a lovely selection to choose from. I hope vests don't go out of fashion too soon. These are all very special. Vest patterns in a number of sizings and styles are included but the techniques can be used on any pattern you have. Well worth having.

5.0 out of 5 stars Comes in a fine revised edition to cover new block designs and piecing options for producing reversible vests, April 14, 2009
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Easy Reversible Vests (Paperback)
Carol Doak's EASY REVERSIBLE VESTS comes in a fine revised edition to cover new block designs and piecing options for producing reversible vests. From choosing appropriate colors and scales to full-sized pullout vest patterns, this is especially recommended for home quilters and sewers who want something different in the way of vest projects.
