100% home made and hand stitched
Well it's been a while, but I eventually finished.
100% hand stitched, starting with a 5 yrds of double width tartan. And ended with something I think looks ok, oh, and plenty of holes in fingers from pins and needles.
This was after sewing and basting the initial pleating, the selvedge at the bottom of the picture

Adding the canvass

The canvass joined at the buttonhole with the tartan folded back on both sides of the buttonhole and laced together at the centre
