Regency waistcoat in silk

  A  waistcoat suitable for recreating 1790-1810s persona, a staple of a Regency  dandy!

 These batch is a result of a stash clearance and practice run of a pattern - i was using leftovers fabrics from other projects or small lengths purchased at a great discounts, so the making cost was kept at minimum, hence the low price.

 I was also practicing on them, trying different techniques - so they are trial versions, not always perfect - if there are any imperfections, it will be noted in the Features.

 * back in 1 layer cotton twill

 * inside finish by overlocker - the side seams can be easily taken in if smaller size is needed

*   velvet covered buttons, but a little bit of leftover fabric is included in case the new owner fancies making matching buttons
