I have a brown corduroy jacket and vest that I'm looking at for conversion that sounds a bit like that. Glad to hear that it works. I'm thinking it will go well with my Weathered Lamont 1/2 set. It has patch pockets too, so it might be an easy chop job for the lady with the needels.

Presumably you've used black knotted leather buttons? Anyhow-- a sartorial "GOLD STAR".
