    Military Pattern Vest

    I am selling a military pattern vest made by me from County Cloth sky blue satinette. It is a size 42 with a muslin lining, brown polished cotton back, and three pockets. The vest is sewn entirely by hand. Buttonholes are sewn in black silk and are the corded keyhole variety.

    I completed the vest back in 2004 and have only worn it to couple of events. There is some slight staining on the inside near the bottom of the back from some red morrocan leather tabs on a pair of braces. Other than that, there is no damage, just a little wear as you would expect after a couple of events.

    See pics for more details.

    $170 buys the vest and pays for shipping to the lower 48.

    Questions? Just ask!

    Folks,
    I've seen this vest and I've seen John's work. This is a real bargain at that price. Not only are you getting great craftsmanship, but you can't get that fabric anymore.

    Don't delay, this one of a kind garment will not last long.

    Much obliged, Chris!

    When I was starting to make this vest, I had some questions about what to use for the lining. Here is the thread I started in an effort to find some answers:
