Circular Vest update

I decided I should make a circular vest using fleece (as shown in the article) before cutting the collar on the corduroy vest and I am glad I did.  The vest actually needs to be 2" smaller - the fit is much better.  I also turned under 1/2" on each side of the armhole slit and used a blanket stitch.  I think the location of the armhole is not "just right" for me - so I will work on that a bit.  I am just going to turn the edge under 1/2" and blanket stitch each side.  I think this vest will work best for me as just a lightweight jacket instead of the fleece.  Perfect for a sleeveless top or dress (since I prefer to hide the arms).   I will post a pic when I have it completed.
