The Block Gilet
A quilted peach-twill gilet with corozo buttons and plant patch.
The making
Quilted from peach-finish cotton twill and made in India. Ochre blanket stitch worked by hand along the edge, and corozo buttons set against hand-worked buttonholes. Three ruled lines on the name tape inside the collar.
How it grows
It is made to last the first child well and to be passed on as it is.

Three steps, one more size.
No machine topstitch on the face of the cloth, so letting the hem down leaves nothing behind but the crease.
Three lines inside the collar.
One for each child who wears it. Write the first name and leave the other two — the garment is built to reach them.
Nothing here is decoration. The hem, the strap ladder and the tape inside the collar are all doing a job.
