Regency waistcoat

  A  waistcoat suitable for recreating 1790-1815s persona, a staple of a Regency  dandy!

 This 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.
