His mother, being the perfectionist in her chosen craft that she was, emulated the medieval master tailors at their very best. Some of the better tailored costumes from the Middle Ages can still be seen on display in the national museums of Europe, having retained their durability over hundreds of years due to the superlative work of the forgotten master tailors. Thomas’s baby clothes had been created with the same devotion to craftsmanship that a medieval master tailor would have envied for the quality of fabric and handiwork.

The sharp creases on the denim shortalls indicated that his mother had taken especial care to steam press the clothes to a perfection that few professional Dry Cleaners ever master.
