In fact, it's funny you should mention that because I have been looking for a good cloth to do a nice, strong-shouldered, CH-inspired DB lately. I want a chalk stripe but it has to be more fluid than English cloth tends to be. I've got a piece on its way from Minnis but I'm not sure if it will be a DB or another SB 3-piece. We'll see when it gets here.<br /><br />JJefferynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5233561143856860698.post-67188000596444853992011-11-18T06:55:44.398-05:002011-11-18T06:55:44.398-05:00Hi Jeffrey,

Less shoulder and, is there even some drape in the back? Or is it just an optical trick from the patches? By the way, did you ever experiment along the lines of the Colin Harvey coat you disected?<br />RobAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5233561143856860698.post-3394024977437763002011-11-08T19:17:49.309-05:002011-11-08T19:17:49.309-05:00Love this!

I've been thinking of doing something similar on a vest to use up suiting scraps from my other projects but haven't gotten around to it yet, though I have made a few pillows using a variety of suit selvage stripes.
