I think that waistcoat looks so contemporary.I really do think it has a classic look to it and I know from experience how many hours of work must have gone into it as inkle weaving seems to grow slowly to my mind.It's a technique that requires loads of patience. All the things you're taking to France will be well received I'm sure. Have a great trip and tell us all about it when you come home!PS Glad you've now got a Healthy Planet too.
