Best of luck and have fun making your jacket. I made, well finished, my first kilt jacket last year and wore it 4-5 times in the winter. I modified the Simplicity 5029 pattern to my needs and used coat weight herringbone tweed in a darker grey. It was a fun project and I learned a lot from it that will be used on my next jacket made from suit weight wool. Ill keep checking in to see how your project progresses... Happy Sewing.
