WAISTCOATS UNLIMITED

I had these waistcoats made from material I sourced on Ebay.
Jan at
WAISTCOATS UNLIMITED
made them for me. I have bought some of her own designs in the past. I usually have bow ties but thought I'd rather have ordinary ties this time.

Wow, I love waistcoats. I used to make them. I still have couple that I made for my dad. We used to call them 'no dad' waistcoats as in 'no dad, you're not wearing that are you?' I really like these ones. Cool

Nothing ordinary about those ties! Beautiful.

Very nice!!! fabrics are perfect, especially since you have a matching pair of shoes that they go with! You're lucky to find someone who can see well, as ties are hard to make.

Pish on those who make comments and some day it will bite them in the bootay.

OH! forgot to say...I HATE using Tofuties!!! the socks sag (maybe the tension thing that you changed) and there is no spring-back-edness. I do swear they smell like the sea, though, which is calming. But there are so many new blends of not-common-fibers out there, that the knots, etc., are unnecessary and intolerable.

Love those waistcoats. What I love most is the doggy one and the fact that I can clearly see a Lhasa right in the middle. All of those are really neat Colin.
Enjoy wearing them!

Hi Colin,
When I saw the first vest and its gorgeous colors, I had to share that with my hubby....he saw it and said he really liked it.
