The latest on the 'waistcoat'....

I worked all morning yesterday on the latest version of the 'waistcoat' [still in fabric til we get it perfect] and text my gent when I was finished. He popped round about 3.30 and tried it on. It's looking pretty good. I have been instructed to not give away too many secrets now as I have a feeling he has realised it's usefulness and is considering applying for a patent on it. Watch this space :-)
I wouldn't have minded if that was all I had had to do yesterday cos it's been a really manic week for me but no....I had 7 customers in just the afternoon! so my to do rail is now heaving again ready for me to start today [and more on it's way this morning!]. I'd best get moving....Onward and upward. Chat later :-)

'Waistcoat' update....

For those fillowing the progress of the 'waistcoat' I just thought I would leave a quick blog. My gent has just been back having had a couple of weeks 'playing with' the maroon prototype. It has been a very useful trial period because there were several changes needed to get it right for him. It's not until you wear something like this that you can tell where pockets should sit for comfort and how big they really need to be to fit in your favourite book. He has drawn out the new shape for me and we have decided on the design changes and new dimentions. He has given it a name and I might share this with you when the time is right :-) It's still a working project in progress but what fun we are having 'getting it right'. :-)
