Recently made a variation of a trifold wallet in Horween Natural Shell Cordovan. Very happy with how it turned out.
I wonder, how hard is it to make a pair of pants? Where can one find vintage pants patterns?
I put the breast pocket on too high (I transferred the wrong line to the fabric, mea culpa). Turned out pretty well over all, I think. Now I need to figure out what to make next.

Beautiful jacket!Just finished this jacket. Blue-gray tweed, with a light gray lining.
I did it again, and put together a "close enough for volunteer work" public transit uniform. This time, I went for modern-day Toronto, Canada. They've got a flashy cap badge, and my, they do love their little red accents.
The whole thing, as best I could research it:
The stars of the show: a new name badge, and a new band and cap badge:
How it works: Those holes in the name plate are to allow me to pin other job names overtop of the standard "operator" text. Also, I've done a bunch of cap badges with this standard paperclip-tab-soldered-to-safety-pin attachment. With the clip tab through a grommet on the cap, it all stays in place very well.
Now I just need to get to one of the many museums that own retired TTC streetcars! And finish my next project: Connestoga Traction Co, of Lancaster County, PA.
