I think I told you a few posts ago about running into blog readers in NYC. This was the highlight of my garment district day.
I also told you about the lovely couple I ran into on the street and about the cooperative husband who took off his jacket and showed me his shirt.
The workmanship on that shirt was outstanding and so I asked for pictures.
And here they are.
Many thanks to Marian for sharing these shots and for her lucky husband Ed for being such a sport.
A standard we can all strive for in the shirt making business:

That is a beautiful shirt...:-)
Beautiful shirt, and the husband too! You are indeed an inspiration.
Wow! I agree. The sewing and the fit is definitely expert. What a lucky guy to have such a talented wife. Good taste never goes out of style. What was his wife wearing and did she make her out fit?
That is one nifty shirt! What a treat for you.... And them. I'm headed there soon and always hope I will see someone I recognize from their blog. Wish me luck.
Wow, sewing perfection. I've always considered creating tailoring shirts as a high end skill. She could be teaching.
Expertly done & in a wonderful color! Beautiful-
I am stunned and green with envy at the skill, precision and sheer mastery of the sewing.
