I do hope you enjoy it when it comes and I am sure you will be delighted with it. Please do post photos when you get it.
I certainly will,,, FYI, I am going to get the braided epaulets vice the solid flat ones, I think it will give a little more character to the jacket. Also adding on the waistcoat a matching watch pocket on the front for my pocket watch.
I certainly will post when I get the jacket, going to be a very hard 10 week wait. But as they say all great things take time and effort, I think the person who I am working with certainly has the skill and effort to do the Jacket and waistcoat correctly.
Cheers....
