Gosh I quake at the thought of sewing a mess dress uniform, what a fantastic job you have done!

Do my eyes deceive me? A military mess kit? Canadian, no less! Are you a Canadian posted in Colorado Springs? We were posted there many years ago. Many, many fond memories. You did a fabulous job on that. I wouldn't even think of doing that.

I'm amazed! If I ever have a need to sew a military suit (which I'd refuse to do in the first place) I will read this and your blog carefully. Interesting review. Thank You.

Oh my goodness. My mess dress (USAF) looks very similar and I cannot imagine sewing one much less more than one. You are a saint to work on something like this with less-than-quality materials and the stringent requirements that I'm sure it had.

How interesting! I enjoyed reading about these projects, and looking at the photos. Great sewing, and beautiful results.

wow, what a lot of work! I hope they kicked in for your time! I can't view the pictures though, it says there is a JS error.
