She basically makes all my pants fit like a pair of Petit Standards and all my larges fit like a Medium. She used to work for David Bitton as a sample maker, so we have a room full of patterns. I think it’s time for me to take a few lessons so I drew out a little something something that I want to make; it involves Brown&Olive, twill, waxed cotton, corduroy, and a tiny bit of leather. For now, you can peek the blueprints, next update will reveal the materials. Stay tuned…

ps: My little “sample man” is wearing a pair of woolrich field pants hahaha.
