Kimono jacket remade into vest

I made this vest by remaking my grandmother's kimono jacket. 

 The photo below is the original jacket. 

The pattern of the fabric is pretty. 

First I had to take everything apart. 

Then, I had to cut the fabric using sewing patterns. The pattern used is McCall's 2099. 

Now I just had to sew them up. Remaking an old piece of garment that you don't wear into something you actually wear is giving it a second life. :)
