My first tweed

[Fireboykirk]

After following the post from The F-H.C.A.G. I thought I'd give it try...

Still needs cuff, and epaulettes and a few more buttons, but didn't say a single inappropriate word, and it's only cost $12.

Tweed and kilts certainly go together well. I am sure your first won't be your last. Smart looking tweed, and you cannot beat the price.

It only needs cuffs and epaulettes if you think it needs them. Also, those look like patch pockets. You might consider raising them a little higher on the jacket, but it looks just fine the way it is. Congratulations.

Here's the final product. Great learning project. Good enough for a pub, but I'll practice more for the "formal" one.

Side note: When the dentist prescribes pain meds, one epaulette Will be slightly shorter than the other.

Fireboykirk,
Well done! Following the F.H.C.A.G.'s instructions I have now converted three jackets that I bought at thrift stores.

Well done! Looks grand!
