    Yes Chrystel finished it yesterday, just before the Saltire leaves for Corsica and Italy.

    I am very happy with it. It is the ideal waistcoat for private gatherings of ladies and gentlemen dressed up in period inspired (not re-enactment) garments.

    Here are a few close ups . We had this piece of cloth for years. Scrunched cloth with embroideries.











    Thank you all for your sweet comments.


    Best,

    I must say, that is truly a remarkable waistcoat, Robert! Your fair Lady has by all standards done it again!

    When will her Ladyship be sending out free samples of her work for the rest of us to model?

    Beautiful work, as always. At first I thought the jacket was for you. Please congratulate your fair Lady for considering herself this time.
