Nudie Vest

I saw a really great local band a few months ago named King Niko.
The front man, Ransom, is delightful.
I absolutely adore him.

For awhile now friends have been suggesting I make a Nudie suit.
Nudie was the guy that designed all those glittery, fancy cowboys suits in the '60's and '70's.

I am making Ransom a 'Nudie' vest.

It is a crazy amount of sequins and beads.

I really enjoying sewing them on one after the other after the other.

It is relaxing work.

I need to start looking for a thrifted suit vest.

It was a nice afternoon with Freya making bead necklaces for her friends and me sequin sewing.

I love crafternoons.
