My Transylvanian Folk Costume Vest sewing journey continues! Here's how I drafted my pattern, did not make a mockup, cut and stitched my fabric, only to realize it was a smidgen too small. Oh no! What will I do now?

Let me know if you enjoyed this episode, and look forward to the next installment featuring the vest decorations – sequins, beads, velvet and wolf's teeth – where I will finally finish this traditional garment and really show it off!

❤ If you were wondering... The Csángó Csujjogatás that I vocalized, is traditionally chanted by men (makes more sense, huh?) ❤
