This is a project I just finished for a professor at SFSU in San Francisco.  I traveled out to San Fran from Virginia to spend some time with my sweetheart and decided to begin a sewing project while he was busy working.  The professor and I had been exchanging some emails prior to the travel about his desire to have a custom made vest.  We arranged to meet at Britex Fabrics in San Fran one morning where I took measurements and he picked out his fabric.  If you are interested in seeing more details of this project, including how to make a welted pocket, you can visit my blog located at:  http://www.theartofsewingblog.blogspot.com
