I saw a nice top on the internet and decided to recreate one for myself.
This is my first how-to, I hope it makes sense!

Steps (6 steps, 60 minutes)

1
Get your top and fabric, my top was just a cheap Primark find and I cadged the fabric.
-
2
Cut a piece of fabric (10" x 7" approx) and lay it across the top section of the vest.

3
Sew the fabric to the top, making sure it's even on either side of the stitches.

Pin the fabric to the top, tucking the frayed edge under, and sew using a neat backstitch. Repeat on the other side.

5
Pin and sew on a small square of fabric (1.5" x 1.5") to the middle of the bow, fold and sew as before.
