Yes, I think you're right, and a zipper would have been a better choice for this vest. I may add one after all; I think it would be a significant improvement. I’m glad my post was helpful, Marsha.

I am about to make a travel vest and found your comments helpful. You might want to consider a separating zipper for your next vest. I think it would look good (just remember to interface the back side of the material where the zipper will go to avoid puckering.) Thanks for sharing the details of how the vest was constructed.

It's extremely comfortable to wear; somehow having all the pockets distributes the weight of my gear very well and it's much more comfortable to wear the vest than to carry a purse or bag. However, I'm not really thrilled with the velcro closing, so I'm planning to make another version this summer. I'm still dreaming of a travel vest that will look good as well as work beautifully!
