Making the Ephod
2 aHe made the bephod of gold, blue, purple, and scarlet thread, and of fine woven linen.
3 And they beat the gold into thin sheets and cut it into threads, to work it in with the blue, purple, and scarlet thread, and the fine linen, into artistic designs.
4 They made shoulder straps for it to couple it together; it was coupled together at its two edges.
5 And the intricately woven band of his ephod that was on it was of the same workmanship, woven of gold, blue, purple, and scarlet thread, and of fine woven linen, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
6 aAnd they set onyx stones, enclosed in1 settings of gold; they were engraved, as signets are engraved, with the names of the sons of Israel.

Exodus 39:1-5
We will stop here just so you get it clear. The ephod (the vest-like garment) and the breastplate were of the same material and apparently of the same design as well.
