Exquisite, Kenneth. Your work will someday be preserved and displayed for future designers and sewists to delight in and learn from. I really appreciate your detailed explanations and photos of technique such as the custom shoulder pads. Thank you for your generosity in sharing!

I know you made this exquisite jacket to be worn and enjoyed--however I can only think this eventually must be kept in a collection and displayed for future designers, sewists, and the lay public to simply admire and also learn from the technical aspects of your creative genius. Thank you so much for your kindness in taking the time to photograph and clearly explain the details of your work, Kenneth, so that we can adapt these techniques to our own designs. You not only explain what, but also why, and how--in multiple steps, with detailed pictures so we may follow along--such as the template for lacing and the construction of the custom shoulder pads. Your generosity is much appreciated!

As always, fabulous article, thank you so much for the spot-on teaching and photos. You never waste time when teaching, you always seem to know what we don't know, and hone in on exactly how to complete the unique technique featured!I have some felted wool/cashmere--I was planning to used lapped seams, but hadn't thought about stretching rather than clipping--now I can branch out into more curves rather than the straighter angles I was thinking of using. Thank you Kenneth, and enjoy wearing this!

This treasure could not be in better hands! Now you must show us the jeans. . .
