1787s Waistcoat







So, I have started working on the waistcoat. I have completed the pattern layout. Also, I have cut out the pattern pieces as well. I am a little worried about the pockets, we shall see.
It's JP Ryan's waistcoat pattern from the 1770s. I really thought that it was close to the original suit illustration.
I mentioned in a previous post that I no longer cut up the original patterns. Now, I trace a copy of the pattern pieces first. I used the traced pattern pieces for layout and cutting.
