Oh, I'm sorry, my mistake. When you use a wooly board, or at least when I did. I assembled my vest, then put it on the wooly board, stretched to the size I wanted. It hangs on the board taunt. It smooths out the stitches and made it look "finished".
When I don't use a wooly board, I block my pieces then assemble them.
I hope that is clearer (it is early here too!)
