It sure is...until you look at the seams. Those were done with a modern sewing machine. The lining is hand sewn closed at the arm hole with linen thread though. Most people see that and figure I hand sewed the whole thing and don't look any farther. There is a limit to my insanity :lol:

The red and blue fabrics are wool and the lining is linen. The buttons are hand cast by someone else. I order them in bulk, he casts them for me and we're both happy campers.

Thank you, thank you!

Pictures of my work room. it really looks like somebody tossed a live grenade in there, but that's because I' ear deep in work. I promise it's normally not this bad :s_biggrin

After I posted those pictures I realized just how bad the mess was and cleaned up a bit. Now I can walk through there without risking my neck. :s_biggrin
