Time to take the plunge! I’m actually curious about the black goat. Shoot me a message when you get the tapas platter from Will.Looks fantastic!!!
Yes, that’s why the hard back creases. Next one I’ll insist on a cardboard box. I’ll do a thread on this one. I do feel Shawn s improving with each jacket he makes.
