Kids Explorer Vest With Lots of Pockets – Free Sewing Pattern

This Little Explorer’s Vest has all the pockets a kid need to hold the treasures they find out in nature! Emily at Life Sew Savory has a free sewing pattern you can use to make one. I remember when my daughter was little, every trip to the park or walk around the block ended up with my pockets filled with rocks or leaves or other treasures she had found. How much more fun (and easier for parents!) for kids to have all the pockets they need to carry their treasures home themselves! This vest is made even more fun by all the different kinds of pockets, including a clear vinyl pocket, a mesh pocket, a flap pocket, and more! Go to Life Sew Savory for the free pattern and tutorial.
