Second Life for a Suit [pictorial] - Page 9

Thank you, Marin, and your wife. There will be no shop.

Thank you for chiming in.


Er... Then please don't show it to her, although I am sure she is lovely.

Did you see the fusing in that fine piece of tailored clothing (first few pictures)? It was practically glued together. I saw that when I removed a small piece of lining (in that stadium, in a nice and clean way, stitch per stitch), and after that I increased the tempo a bit. Besides that, it was about eight years old and I hadn't worn it the last six years or so.



Thanks!
