    "A veteran, whether active duty, retired, national guard or reserve, is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to "The United States of America", for an amount of "up to and including my life." That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it." anon

    Thanks, no pattern at all.

    Simply measured myself, then laid the fabric, pleated it, pinned and basted it.

    Started tack sewing at the hips first to make sure the dimensions were correct, then started sewing up the fell tapering until I got my waist dimensions.

    Another test fit and it was all over but the shouting at about 8 PM.

    I guess this qualifies as a 'traditional"?
