Linen Jacket Conversion

[JS Sanders]

AA,
This company, www.duluthtrading.com , has some khaki-colored & navy blue jackets. One version is made of hemp. They're geared towards travelers, but no reason not to convert to kilt length. All of them have more pockets than Carter's has little liver pills.

The only downside I can see is you'll hafta pay full-price for the garment.

Slainte yall,

I'm considering doing this to one of my older, cheaper jackets. Would you mind showing me the edges where you cut and re-stitched?

It looks great by the way!

It's what I closely followed and the photos are superior to any I could add.

Hey Steve.

I've read it, it's VERY informative. She did a wonderful job portraying her work. I just didn't know if you did anything different being linen is substantially lighter than any tweed material I've seen.
