    Jacket projects

    Found two thrift store jackets to convert to kilt jackets, with the wife's supervision of course. Who could resist a black 100% cashmere for $12.00 and a checked PV for $4.00.

    It went beyond me, I sent the jacket to VMAC3205 she deserves all the credit. VMAC3205(Victoria) did a beautiful conversion.

    I think there is some wisdom in knowing one's limits. I've seen some of VMAC3205's conversions before and she always does a good job. Some other DIY work, however, is not as deserving of praise...
