Sounds good, and I look forward to the thread on what they do.
I have finnished the front of the waistcoat; the back needs a bit of work, but that can wait.
The curves of the cutaway on the jacket need some work too, so that is probably what I will need to do next. I spent the afternoon shortening the sleeve cuffs of a grey three piece suit. I couldn't find the trousers for that suit, so I had put off doing the sleeves. I did find the trousers though, and it is good to go now.
However, I think I'm done sewing for the day. 
* Oops. I ended up working on the cutaway curves anyway. I think they are pretty good now.
I think that just leaves sewing down the lining along the back, and a thread end check. I will need to press, brush, and steam it and the waistcoat, but it's fairly close to being done. *

I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…
