    Historic tartan waistcoat... just finished sewing

    I have been wanting to make a tartan waistcoat for some of the reenacting I do for the 1790-1815 period. I just recieved this beautiful fabric from a friend and believe it is just a fashion tartan (although close to Maclean of Duart). I then started handsewing like a mad man. End result... a double-breasted waistcoat with stand collar. I am pretty excited and plan on getting some use out of it already this weekend.
