Lil Tux Vest: Kids Sizes 4-10


Lil Tux from Sewing Pattern Secrets

We love this Vest Sewing Pattern because it is so versitile!  It is part 1 of 2 vest patterns on the same PDF file.  The other is the Western Vest.  More on Western Vest later. This two-in-one pattern file is just one of our growing library of over 125 sewing patterns offered exclusively on our pattern library for the one-time price of $67.  See our offer here.

Both costumes are quick and easy, but they are also high quality vests which are great for back to school, school photos, holidays and events.

You WILL save money on this sewing project.  Fabric requirements are small and the project is rewarding!

Molly McGuire

Hi! My name is Molly McGuire, and my number one passion is sewing. In fact, I've dedicated my entire life to it. When I was a little girl, I used to love watching my grandma work on her sewing machine. She could make anything. She made all the clothes for the entire family, and it was so amazing! Today, I continue my grandma's legacy by making clothes for our extended family and teaching proper sewing techniques to our students. I get a great deal of satisfaction from teaching others. Once again, thank you for visiting my blog and please feel free to reach out to me! I would love to hear from you! Enjoy! Molly
