Brian, in your third photo down, is it just a strange reflection or is that a "face" or a "head with two horns" that I see in the upper belly area...

Shangas, you might not want to hear this but . . . find the oldest (and I do mean oldest) alterations/tailoring woman or man in your town and call...
