Fantastic Robert, both the tweed jacket and your new waistcoat. Send my regards to Chrystel.
I really admire your style of clothing, and also your style of photography, the way you use the natural light to create beautiful photos, it's fantastic. Thanks!
Skĺl!

That makes for a great looking jacket!

Between the jacket, the waistcoat, the kilts, etc; is there anything that Lady Chrystel cannot do?  Quote:

| | No problem Terry,
I'm a bit slow in answering right now for I am on tour.
I only get on the forum once I'm back to my hotel room...tired, and a little tipsy...
I hope you did get a close look to that amazing white cockade Chrystel makes .
... and the answer is NO  .... there isn't anything Chrystel cannot sew... That's just the way she is since a wee lass. When she was 4 years old , she would take her garments apart and sew them back together again. 
No one could really get mad at her for her job was perfect. She inherited the old sewing machine from her granny, then went to professional tailoring school (“haute couture” as we call it) and that was it ! 
She simply amazes me.
Best,
Robert

All my best to you, my friend, and don't stay up too late
