Update:
I did finally tack down the lining in my wool SWK, and that discription has been added to the first post. It probably needs a little more tacking down at the top in the waist area. I'm thinking that attaching it loosely to the stabilizer's bottom edge would be best so I don't have to put any stitches through the outside of the kilt.
Also, I put the first pleat hem and underapron hem on the wool kilt. The underapron was all right, but I went ahead and put the hem in anyway. That discription and Barb's thread link explaining it has also been added to the first post.
Still no pictures of that first jacket conversion, but I have pinned up the jacket and waistcoat of a dark gray suit which was missing the matching trousers.
If I ever do get pictures, I will start a new thread on these conversions, and transfer the information I have posted here.
I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…
