Want to make your Scotty look smart

Make this traditional coat for your Scotty
Material, 20 inch by 20 inch Tartan material, 24 inch by 2 1/2 inch Tartan material, 20 inch by 20 inch Lining, 24 inch by 2 1/2 inch Lining, 8 inch strip of Velcro

Cut the shape out on some paper first to make sure you get it right. When you are happy with that, place the paper on top of the Tartan material and hold it place with a few pins. Cut the material around the edge of the paper.
<This picture has a grid with 1 inch squares. 20 inch high by 20 long. From that you can see that the dip in the middle is around 4 inches at the top and 2 inch at the sides.

The bottom dip is not cut, its a little tuck in the center of the material, 4 inches long with 1/4 inch of material folded over and stitched, the excess material is on the inside of the coat.
