Thanks for the pattern link. I plan to convert a blazer and vest (combo) soon to a daywear design, not a PC. This will help with future plans though.

And check out Pattern Review website for comments by members who used this Folkwear pattern. Some give tips on modifications.

The folkwear pattern looks good. Thanks Bruce Scott. And thanks KiltBoy for the link to the reviews. I would convert a tux jacket but they are near impossible to find at thrift stores here in my size, as most people rent here. In 3 months of searching i have seen one tux that was not my size.
