Looks great, did you sew it by hand? I've heard these kinds of jackets are a pain to sew without a machine. I dont want to get one if it'll be too tough to sew haha.
They take alot of time for damn sure. But it's not too difficult. Everyone says use a thicker needle, I disagree. I find using a very small very thin needle works better. You want to sew the patches very well though which does become time consuming.
And yeah I hand sew.
Ah okay, I think I'll probably still give it a try. Thanks for the input! And I've actually never tried studding/spiking a vest yet, but maybe I will sometime.
There are some youtube tutorials online that helped give me an idea. I am cheap so I used an ice pick for the studding which is probably why it was so hard lmao. Best of luck hope you enjoy yourself. Its tiresome but there's nothing more rewarding than seeing your finished product knowing how much work was put into it

Honestly the studding / spiking is WAY harder and way more time.consuming than just sewing
