Trying to make a vest similar to this using cotton fabric (2 layers). Do I need interfacing? (media.kbin.social)

Then definitely add some interfacing around the closures! Otherwise the pulling can become quite obvious and not great.

I think I am going to just interface the whole torso area so it's more structured. Does that seem like a terrible idea?

No one talked me out of it so I guess I will find out the hard way lmao

I tested it out on one of the lower panels and it looks way nicer than just 2 layers with no interfacing so yolo

@pizza_rolls @just_chill I'm not qualified to talk you either into or out of anything of the sort. But I *am* going to be watching with interest, haha! 🍿

I'm not qualified to talk myself into or out of anything either, I'm just making it up as a go!

I think I am gonna do light interfacing on the top pieces and medium on the bottom. I will post a picture of it completed if it's not a total disaster 👀

There still is @craftingfails for total disasters.... On a more serious note, if you like interfaing more then it's the better decision!
