## Designer Notes {#notes}
|
|
|
|
I like waistcoats. I think they are not only pretty to look at, they are also
|
|
warm, cut down on the amount of shirt ironing you have to do, and have these
|
|
cute little pockets you can put tiny things in.
|
|
|
|
So, I designed Wahid so I could make waistcoats for myself.

## What You Need {#needs}
|
|
|
|
To make Wahid, you will need the following:
|
|
|
|
- Basic sewing supplies
|
|
- About 1 meter (1.1 yards) of a suitable fabric ([see Fabric options](#fabric))
|
|
- About 1 meter (1.1 yards) of lining fabric
|
|
- Fusible interfacing
|
|
- Buttons
|
|
|
|
## Fabric Options {#fabric}
|
|
|
|
All suiting fabrics are a great choice for your waistcoats. Any fabric shop
|
|
that's worth your business should have a suiting section. You can just walk in,
|
|
ask where you can find the fabric for suits, and pick out something you like.
|
|
|
|
These fabrics are typically wool, but you can also be a bit more creative and
|
|
go for something else.
|
|

|
You do need a bit of weight though. Denim is fine, some light cotton is not.
