I have Hollywood lining fabric from TheNickFox store on spoonflower being delivered on Monday. When I receive it I am sending more stuff to Magnoli's point of contact in Florida to then be added to the other items to then be sent overseas. The jacket would then finally be officially started.
The 5 other snaps (the jacket needs 11) are still drying, but here are the vintage snaps I've fashioned to be reused. It's hard to tell in the pic but ive used two part epoxy to glue the posts on. Used lots on each snap so its secure and never comes apart.
TheNickFox, do you have a recommendation of what type of fabric one should use when purchasing from your spoonflower store? Is the default fabric ok, or is there a better option from the list that would be more suited for a jacket.
Just because I don't really have any other place to post this, but I was able to find another vest. Measurements are like an XXS. Had to ship it from Italy to the UK where EmmaInCandyland so graciously was able to ship it to the US. The website it came from didn't ship here so I needed the help.
It will take a few weeks or maybe even longer to reach where my package needs to go. At that time they will inspect everything I have included and reference my notes and get back to me with any comments and a final price for the project.
Package of all of the fabric and Guess vest has been shipped to Magnoli Clothiers! I have also sent them a fully updated notes document so everything should be covered and ready.
Friend of mine found some jeans in the right fabric and color. He's using them for his own custom replica but he placed them inside his correct color vest just to see what it would look like as a jacket.
My friend's vest with some jeans he found in the right fabric that are being used as arms for his own replica he is sewing together himself. This is basically what my project will look like.
