Ever wonder why a well made gentleman's jacket looks so good on men who
may not make much impression in a bathing suit?
Ever wonder what is inside one or why those who can afford them are
willing to pay several thousand dollars for one?
I can't say that I ever did but after I decided that eating my sheep
was out of the question, I found out the hard way.

Thanks but I am not sure what I would do if my draft didn't fit well.
The fitting part is where I really need some help as the interactiions
between different pieces make me hesitant to change anything.
I need some quality time with a real tailor to understand this aspect.

Jack, it's beautiful! Well done! :) I made my hubby a suit a few
years back, out of venetian cloth from a factory making for Daks, so I
know how much work is involved in just the making. I'm not yet ready to
start with a field of sheep!
I might even believe you bought a horse for the hair canvas... ;)
