<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I managed to finish most of my new Regency menswear collection in time for the start of Bridgerton season 2, starting with the waistcoat in this blog post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shirts during the Regency period are still cut like last century shirts so no additional pattern is required, pattern #0521 fits perfectly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As always, the blog post is intended as support for working with one of my patterns, mainly photos are shown for work steps that may be unclear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
