This part looks difficult, but you are simply lining up the raw edges of the fur and the lining, right sides facing, with the bulk of the vest sandwiched in between. Pin. Leave a 2″ opening along the bottom for turning and stitch. It may seem like a crumpled ball, but pull the vest through the opening you left and it will be assembled!

Hand stitch your turning opening shut.
