Re: Waistcoat fit
One of the few custom sewing projects that I did for another person was shirtmaking. That was for the ex (and no, I'm not taking applicants for the position...) It's been 4.5yrs since we separated and I know he's still wearing the shirts I made him because of the fit and fabric I used. It's relatively easy to alter a good shirt pattern for neck, bicep, back, chest, waist and arm length. If anyone were interested in sewing their own shirts, I highly recommend the book 'Shirtmaking' by David Page Coffin. He also has a dvd on this subject.
