Today I would like to share a free PDF sewing pattern for Kids' Reversible Bolero Vest for Sizes 1 Year to 12 Years.
A bolero is a stylish, cropped jacket and is the perfect extra piece to add a little something to every outfit which can completely elevate your look. This PDF pattern is for a sleeveless bolero.
You can use the same fabric for both the main and lining sides, or you can use fabrics of different colors or patterns for the main and lining to make it reversible and to give two different looks to your outfit.
